Jandek - Killer Cats In The Carribbean lyrics

Killer cats in the Caribbean

Careless cod slithering in the nets

Green blue yellow red

And the rain and the oil slicks

In the watery parts of the street

And the ice breaking as I walk

Really just testing the strength

Of an ice cold frosty morning

Just goin on a long walk

Nothing new

And the crusty cars need shoveling out

Oh mosquitoes on the big leaves

Waiting for you arm to appear

Hungry for your blood

Walking up the mountain in a swarm

I've got to be doing something wrong

But where do I turn to be right?

It doesn't seem anywhere is right for very long

Am I right? Or am I missing something?

Tell me all you got

I still don't think it could be enough

I'm not asking for anything special

I was on my knees screaming

Where could I go from there?

It's only what you do, that's all

Take the pain and the joy

Eat it up for breakfast

It's all there is my friend

If you got a pocket full of something special

It's nothing new to me
