Back when I was first on my own Before I had me a love before playing in a band At the tender age Not old enough to drink but the best age to get drunk You were all in the world that I had Just me and my unusual friend Playing songs to the magic box 'Til through holes in the old rotten roof snowed the cold light of morning Back when you, substitute for girls Surrogate for good and the pa**er of the time
In the aching dehydrated dawn With my bruised up heart on the mend And I'd hold you in my had Yeah I'll miss you my unusual friend I knew that if you stuck around One weird warm night you'd sneak in my room and k** me And then float out my lungs on a breeze But I'll miss you my unusual friend 'Cause you were all in the world that I had Yeah I'll miss you my unusual friend
