bad things happen

lyrics

just mere days after his imminent death, old birch's ghost was seen.
he was out in front of the main street station w/ the alarm goin off.
he was pacing round a stack of books.
then he walked past the graveyard, took a right on earl street
then he left the pavement, disappeared on the beach.

she was never someone you'd call stable.
she had a one-bedroom w/ a manatee mailbox.
when the storm came, i swear to god she got thinner,
she held my hand, man she held it like a prisoner.
and my mind unraveled. she had just paid the rent
and the spoon in her bowl of cereal bent.

twas a clear night on september 16,
i was in the woods, reading poe, drinking beers
unable to sleep.
i heard a grasp of thunder, heard the applause of little moose feet,
i saw spots of light crossing the skies in threes.
and when i woke up there i was covered in leaves
and i refused to move. it was bout as good as anything.

you don't have to believe these things i've seen.
but i'm from daytona beach, baby, you don't wanna fuck w/ me.
bad things happen to good people.
