Guy Outside
There's a guy outside
He's sitting on my steps
He hasn't moved for hours
My God, he might be dead
Well, I should go down there
Put a mirror beneath his nose
I should check for his wallet
But then I'd have to touch his clothes
And he might not be real dead
He could be sleeping, I suppose
Why is he sleeping on my steps?
Heaven only knows
Well, I've been thinking real hard
About that guy outside
I wonder where he came from
And I wonder how he died
And I wonder if his soul
Is resting some place yet
I wonder if he smoked
'Cause I could use a cigarette
What was he real proud of
And what did he regret
And what the fuck's he doing
Sitting on my steps?
Well, then a bug flew down
Landed in his ear
He never even flinch
And that's exactly what I feared
You know, I'll bet he's got a wife
And a happy family
Do they know his whereabouts
Are they depending on me
To dial 911
And report an emergency
They'll come to haul that stiff away
Hey, I might be on TV
Well, there's a guy outside
I wish he'd go away
Look what that bastard's done
He's gone and ruined my whole day
He's sitting on my steps
He hasn't moved for hours
My God, he might be dead
Well, I should go down there
Put a mirror beneath his nose
I should check for his wallet
But then I'd have to touch his clothes
And he might not be real dead
He could be sleeping, I suppose
Why is he sleeping on my steps?
Heaven only knows
Well, I've been thinking real hard
About that guy outside
I wonder where he came from
And I wonder how he died
And I wonder if his soul
Is resting some place yet
I wonder if he smoked
'Cause I could use a cigarette
What was he real proud of
And what did he regret
And what the fuck's he doing
