Lyrics Daniel Johnston

Daniel Johnston

Sad Sac + Tarzan

Walking up at the mall

Up walked a girlfriend

Said you had the gall to bring my name up again

Looking for salvation

We had an ice cream soda

I said have you ever wondered

What became of Uncle Bill?

We was peeling potatoes

Bcak in World War II

And we was playing that rock 'n' roll

After school for you know who

Hidden from the public

It was behind the scenes

There was a relic

They called the purple haze

I was eating a taco

I looked across the room

I saw a girl in a red dress

She said she'd like to do me in

I left the waiter a tip

I scrambled for the door

I said you might have loved me

But now there's nothing more

She's always on my trail

She really likes to kill

I keep her lovely picture

On my window sill

I was a cowboy without a show

I was like the kind of guy

You'd never really know

You won't forget me

No mater how hard you try

And when it's my time to go

I'll wave goodbye

Sing yourself a melody, cry a tear of joy
