On the Corner (Of Oh Shit and Oh My God)

by Larry Furman

I'd been working thru the night

the rain just started to fall

he flew thru red light

hit me like a brick wall

on the corner of oh shit and oh my God

oh shit and oh my God

oh shit and oh my God

hit me like a brick wall

The car was gettin' old

it almost ran ok

no heat no radio

and no monthly note to pay

on the corner of oh shit and oh my God

oh shit and oh my God

oh shit and oh my God

no monthly note to pay

now the damage was complete

the car’s a total loss

I got blisters on my feet

I wish I had a horse

I used to walk on the beach

To watch the dolphins play

Now I got tar-balls on my feet

No dolphins there today

on the corner of oh shit and oh my God

oh shit and oh my God

oh shit and oh my God

no dolphins there today

the damage is complete

the gulf will slowly die

I got tarballs on my feet

I’m just askin’ why
