Long Man

I can’t fit inside this lock I can’t fit inside this sock This hole is not meant for me Body stretching out from me Out of sync Misshapen link Wash the ink out in the sink You went day and I went night I went left and you went right And everything just looks so wrong I don’t understand this song I am way beyond repair My liver’s pulling at my hair My neck is biting at my tongue My leg is choking out my lung My hands are fighting with my heart My pieces mixing with my parts I’m a jumble mumbled mess An uneducated guess I went no and you went yes You went more and I went less All tied up and all stretched out I got lupus I got gout I don’t fit into this mold I’m too hot and I’m too cold I’m lopsided and askew You went red and I went blue I went one and you went two And I don’t know what I should do Fool me once and fool me thrice But now I’m chewing on the dice Rattle brains and saddle lice Grip my shoulder in a vice Two thirds left and halfway done Three makes ten and nine makes one Now you’ve got me all confused Now I can’t fit in these shoes I think that I went too long I think that I went too long
