Like a possum
---------------
Good morning it's Possum Day
Feel like a possum in every way
like a possum
Possum whiskers, possum face
Possum breath and a possum taste
Oohh, like a possum
Possum tales, possum eyes
Possum bones, possum thighs
Oohh, like a possum
Possum shots, possum runs
Possum sleeps to possum drums
Calm as an angel
Good morning it's Possum Day
I feel like a possum in every way
Like a possum
Wake up with a possum smile
Look at me!
Look at this smile
Like a possum
Things are all right don't worry about this
My mind's amiss I've lost the kiss
My smile is leaden, my gait is rubber
And I say as one possum to another
Like a possum
Calm as an angel
The only thing I hope to never see
Is another possum in this tree
Playing possum
Just like a possum
I got a hole in my heart the size of a truck
It won't be filled by a one night fuck
Slurping and squeezing ain't it just my luck
Got a hole in my heart the size of a truck
The size of a truck
The devil tried to fill me up but my down was high
As the sky is up
Aahh, ain't that just my luck
Calm as an angel
Smoking crack with a downtown flirt
Shooting and coming 'til it hurts
Calm, calm, calm as an angel
They're mating like apes in the zoo
One for me and one for you
Wouldn't it just be lovely
Another useless night in bed
Ah, ah, by the Hudson River
The rollerbladers giving head
Used condoms float on the river edge's head
Wouldn't it be lovely
Wouldn't it be lovely
I got a hole in my heart the size of a truck
It won't be filled by one night fuck
Like a possum
Like a possum
Ooohhh, calm as an angel
You know me I like to dance a lot
With different selves who cancel out one another
I'm the only one left standing
One likes muscles, oil, and dirt
And the other likes the women with the butt that hurts
Like a possum
The devil tried to fill me up
But my down was high as the sky is up
Calm as an angel
I got a hole in my heart the size of a truck
And it won't be filled by a one night fuck
Like a Possum
You know me I like to drink a lot
And carry on
don't know which self will show up
Over the 5 A.M. sun, the moon is shining
Over the docks shining
Oo, calm as an angel
The girls in the market know what I'm about
They pinch their nipples and they lift their skirts
With a pierced tongue licking below a stained tee shirt
Look at this smile
My mind's amiss
Smoking crack with a downtown flirt
Shooting and coming 'til it hurts
Calm, calm
Sitting on a curb I throw a rock
At the passing meat market trucks
It's just my luck
I'm the only one left standing
And you know me I like to drink a lot
The only one left standing
The girls in the market know what I'm about
They pinch their nipples and they lift their skirts
Licking below a stained tee shirt
Calm as an angel
Smoking crack with a downtown flirt
Shooting and coming baby 'til it hurts
Wouldn't it be
Wouldn't it be
Wouldn't it be love
Wouldn't it be lovely
Calm as an angel
Got a hole in my heart the size of a truck
It won't be filled by one night fuck
Ain't it just my luck
Got a hole in my heart the size of a truck
Another useless night in bed
Walk down to the Hudson River getting head
Calm calm calm calm calm as an angel
Don't know why baby I'm still here
Strong and fearless in the outside air
I'm the only one left standing
I'm the only one, the only one
The only one left standing
I'm the only one
I'm the only one left standing
Calm as an angel
I'm the only one
I'm the only one
The only one left standing
Calm as an angel
Shooting an coming 'til it hurts
O, holy morning
Calm as an angel
