And I never put down the axe
You gave me the stone, gave me the chisel
But I took it upon myself to crush it up
Get in the bus, hop in the van
And distribute the dust
Look it, mom, no hands
Jump in the water, crawl to the land
The less he is able to make the connection between what he sees
'Cause the crowd is packed and the louder they clap
And I'm forced to shoot it down
I'll ride this horse till it it bucks me off
When singer can be among song
When he hears certain notes and the hurt
Too many moves to learn
Look what i did to my hands, I broke 'em
Ma, ma, look what I did, ma
I'll take him out for some gasoline
Tell the boss who is new in town
And a painful look on his face
Build another castle out of sand
No, I know no one said it was gonna be easy
That is shown in his facial expression ah
But sweet Jesus who wants to sleep with me?
Break it down and then get into the saddle again
Trade this cow for some magic beans
I'm going city to city, I'm already lost
Song in the air, why should singer care?
Didn't say how to hold 'em
Didn't say to give away every piece of the puzzle
But I'm glad that I never passed the genes
'Cause I'm just a modern day Johnny Appleseed
Gonna make mom proud of the deals that I made
Not enough people to put 'em on
I don't need your "Go ahead" to go ahead
Piano man got a checkered dance floor to grace
Till I was left with nothin'
