When youre down in the rubbish Looking for some of my old songs Well dont expect me to Come out and watch you perform When youre riding on my coattails Put the pen to the contract And youll never come back Youll be pushed into the back of a van
With a bag around your head Im the boy that you lept (looked?) on And as im waltzing through the graveyard To the ballad of the toadeaters Well our lawyers cant decide If you are riding on my coattails This is the ballad of the toadeaters
