mark kozelek & desertshore - hey you bastards i'm still here lyrics
when i was a kid i read the satanic bible
i was bored, got it at the mall in ohio
when i was older i moved out to the bay
and at a music store, hey i met anton lavey
he was dapper and he had two strippers with him
he played organ with expertise and precision
i got invited to his house in ’97
with my friend becky, there was some kind of get together
i didn’t go cuz i had something or other
then he died that year in late october
and if i’m ever near the corner he lived on
i always think about the day i met anton
his old victorian was black as bondo
they tore it down, now it’s shiny new condos
when i was a kid i watched the movie papillon
with my father, it left an impression on me
the head hunters and the lepers colony
devil’s island and the dustin hoffman boat scene
i watched the movie 150 times
i can recite every one of the script lines
to this day the last scene brings me to tears
when steve mcqueen says, “hey you b-st-rds i’m still here”
we watched a lot of tv, kung-fu, and beretta
robert blake wore a c-ckatoo on his shoulder
and you couldn’t help but to love david carradine
kicking the white man’s -ss in every scene
oh i can’t help but think of my father and me
when i see old movies with steve mcqueen
oh i can’t help but think of my father and me
when i hear the name david carradine
when i was a kid i’d go to the cue cushion
there were pool tables and dead beats drug pushing
i’d buy joints in the bathroom for a dollar
smoke them down along the tuscarawas river
i’d sit alone and i’d feel inspired
i wanted out of the home of the m-ssillon tigers
at night i’d watch johnny carson televised in la
and knew i’d live on the west coast one day
and when i’m back home i remember the old days
when i walk along lincoln way
and when i’m back home i remember the old days
when i walk along lincoln way
