The Details of Our Trip - Fishboy

a hundred thousand set for bail

so I sit in county jail

taking all the news that I am given

letters wanting autographs

tv interview requests

questions about the time I face in prison

our fame it spreads across the land

everybody knows the band

who talks to ghosts and holds up banks for money

taco stands and spelling bees

everybody can’t believe

the details of our trip

and all I do is sit

and I’m not alone

though it may seem

I’ve got a voice of comfort

there’s a voice that talks to me an insane defense

they want me to plea

but I don’t know if I can

and do patiently I wait

and think of things they’d take away

if I gotta serve a life sentence

carleen jean the death machine

with eyes as blue as lazer beams

my taqueria girl

to me she means the world

and buddy explains

«I've felt it to when I was once alive

there was a girl named peggy sue

she was my all

that much is true

but now she’s gone for good

and I’d change it all only if I could»
