INTRO (Before The Song Begins): Hehe. 1, 2, 3, 4...
CHORUS: I don't know a cave from a hole in the ground I wandered an age through a cool and dark cage Tried finding my way by touch, taste, sense, sound (1st time) But no way out of hell, as the sin is on stage (2nd time) But I'm here and I hope I won't see old age (3rd time) But I figure the solitude's my only wage (4rd time) And long past the point of pretending to rage
VERSE 1: I wonder what happened up there to my truck Left parked with a load, no doubt long since been towed I never expected to have such strange luck I should have obeyed what that road sign forebode
Cavefish is delicious, but only if cooked You'll mess it up bad, well let's leave it at that I've eaten whenever, whatever I've hooked I'd kill for the thrill of a meal with some fat
(CHORUS)
VERSE 2: I don't know my soul from a hole in the dark I'd wake from my sleep and I'd silently weep I once knew a girl who loved me as a lark My pain, she explains, is what made me so deep
I thought I was ever so lonesome at home It needled at me until I couldn't see The forest for trees nor the sea for the foam And I took up the job that was all absentee
(CHORUS)
VERSE 3: The miles and also the hours were strained Kept my hands on the wheel, it was solid and real And wind blew and snow fell and storms rumbled and rained And I drove through it all but found I could still feel
Inspire me world, I was writing a song Saw a sign for the cave, thought "artistic" and "brave" I grabbed my guitar and I moseyed along and though I hate to state it, I entered my grave
