Infrareds on little people standing with some big heads,
I was Captain Kirk, walkin' with a black t-shirt.

Hospitals came, detectives wrote down my name.
I was to blame, my life never been the same.
A true story; I tell ya, it'll never bore me.

Drinkin' 40s, he jumped out the project window,
Stabbed himself with a yellow number 2 pencil.
