Caterpillar

I have walked your sorry streets

Lived amongst your people

And I'm sure we must have heard

The same birds singin'

You have stepped in hardened footprints

Up where my shoes were muddied

And I know we must have heard

The same dogs barking

When the ground was rumbling

And the bathroom walls were bendin'

I lay there wet and naked

Oh, I know you heard me yellin'

Out a name that you never used for me till then

Out a name that you never used for me till then

Out a name that I never used

I have shat on the hillside

Neck deep in cushioned clover

Up where I'm sure you braided those

Necklaces and bracelets

You have lost your socks and panties

Out by the caterpillar

That grades the road I walk on

While I'm dreading English

The ground was shakin'

And the jewel tea was a fallin'

There's a cracking in your kitchen

Oh, I know you heard me callin'

Out a name that I never used for you till then

Out a name that I never used for you till then

Out a name that I never used
