Lyrics

Well I used to be a young kid
A really dumb kid
Racing bikes around the block for the neighborhood props
In wyoming yeah
Was it all that bad
There's a crazy bald woman wearing winter clothes
In summer wonder what she wears when it snows
And I'm really scared
Really really scared
The next door lady's been giving me stares
I'm setting firecrackers off in her mailbox
Because she made me mad
So she'll have to pay
You will never see me on west b street
The cat lady's still singing you won't see me
No you will never find me on west b street
Because the neighbor next door she scares me on west b
Well now I swore to the officer he ran this way
But there's no footprints in the snow today
And I know I'm caught
Brother's bawling his head off
But what can you say when you're only nine
It's just one broken window to pass the time
And it seemed so cool
But no one else was smiling
Now the twins down the street are in another fight
I think the one with the bullwhip will win this one
And they're running hard
Right through my yard
Well here is how that story twists
Somehow I became their nemesis
Now I'm on my roof
And it's starting to get dark
I had planned for years
My escape was clear
It's a long walk man
But it's beautiful to be here
