Scavenger

Have you written me off?

Have you pegged me a fool?

Once you were close to me; now we could never be

And maybe I had it wrong

Or maybe I was dead on

How could it ever be simple and carefree, oh?

Oh, I don't know why

But you always come around

Every time there is coin

Just enough to go around

Scavenger, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Once you'd written me off

And you pegged me a fool

But now you come back to me, broken and stumbling

And we got caught in the game

With poisoned words, we blamed

How could this ever be simple and carefree?

And I know it's harder than it seems

To always feel stuck in between

The start and where you want to be, oh

Oh, I don't know why

But you always come around

Every time there is coin

Just enough to go around

Scavenger, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

And I know it's harder than it seems

To always feel stuck in between

The start and where you want to be, oh, oh

Oh, oh I don't know why

But you always come around

Every time there is coin

Just enough to go around

Scavenger, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Scavenger, you come to me

You tell your lies between your teeth

After all I've seen and all I've done

Will you catch me when I'm on the run?
