Shovels & Rope - Botched Execution lyrics

[Verse 1] They botched my execution back in 1996 I climbed out of a window and I hopped over the fence Had to dig myself a tunnel, put my feet on the cement And started running, running, running, ain't nobody seen me since And now I've got to find a friend, someone to tell I didn't do it But now my picture's in the paper, there's no way that I can prove it And the body's in the closet 'cause I never got to move it Now the neighbor kids are talking, saying, "Everybody knew it" [Chorus] Ah ah All my little seeds have grown Ah Ah ah Sooner later come back home Ah ah ah Oh [Verse 2] Leave a trail of crumbs, a lure for them to bite on In a Motel 6, thank God nobody left the light on Dressed myself in women's clothing and a wig that I had tried on Tried to cleanse myself of all those alibis I had relied on And now I'm lying on my back, looking at the ceiling When suddenly I am distracted by that old familiar feeling With the table and the devil and the cards that he was dealing I was sure enough a slave and some poor soul I would be stealing tonight [Chorus] [Verse 3] Well, hitched my skirt, climbed up the car on the railroad Found myself a-gazing down the barrel at a crossroad Hide out in the circus, rob a bank, hit the payload Or wait out in the darkness with the freaks and kinda lay low A storm had downed a power line, laying on the trainway Standing in a puddle, felt a shock and in a ditch lay In my final moments I could hear the lucky judge say "Well, I guess the execution went as scheduled anyway" [Chorus]
