Caravan Lyrics

Caravan by Jam Baxter

• Kicked out the caravan, somewhere left of everywhere
• Someone told me all my dead relatives were buried there
• You will never see me ever sitting still in any chair
• Running round the desert picking thorns from my derriere

• Midnight, sand dunes, space flight, trashed rooms
• Frog spawn, jack moves, silk tongue, rat suits
• All of the above have played a part in my awakening
• And peppered every dream inside this severed head I'm cradling
• I left after dark, sped past the guards, handed em a shovel yellin' "X marks the path"
• One too many nights at a chess-masters yard
• Where a jeweler and a thief split the rent half and half
• Read between the stretch marks and scars little wench
• Them two names within a heart carved in a bench aren't ours
• I said it with impeccable mystique as I hot-wired a 747 with my teeth
• Last week the memories are patchy the word is I left a bleeding segment of myself in every taxi
• And crawled out the last as a disembodied fist
• Still swinging, still missing, still pissed
• It was like this..

• Kicked out the caravan, somewhere left of everywhere
• Someone told me all my dead relatives were buried there
• You will never see me ever sitting still in any chair
• Running round the desert picking thorns from my derriere

• I found a creepy little leaflet in a thick greasy mess
• It said how to skip town in just 6 easy steps
• Roll a zoot, spark it
• Run screaming like a harlot with a bright red target on your chest
• Then just head west, dodge bullets like a G
• While the maggots from your back, back-flip into the sea
• I ripped it into bits, sounds gash, poured a shot and stood back
• To watch the world burn, surveying the debris
• Damn, what a huge fuckin' mess, the crews unimpressed
• There's bare screaming kids and just a few muzzles left
• I was running on a full tank of booze blood and sweat
• They were broom covered goons with a few butters skets
• So strap a new saddle to this old swollen pig
• And I'll show you what a cold shoulder is in 5 seconds
• Bought em all a chrysalis and crawled aboard a missile ship and taught em all
• To never talk shit in my presence

• Kicked out the caravan, somewhere left of everywhere
• Someone told me all my dead relatives were buried there
• You will never see me ever sitting still in any chair
• Running round the desert picking thorns from my derriere

• Smash and grab, pack a bag, boot
• I'll be halfway to Paris, sat strapping that zoot
• By the time you finished asking that question
• You can have this chat with your reflection
• Smash and grab, pack a bag, boot
• I'll be dead in Calcutta in a tattered black suit
• By the time you finished asking that question
• You can have this chat with your reflection
