Overcoat
Lyricist:John Vanderslice
When I was young I was left to fend for myself A latchkey leaves the door open to anyone else I met the brothers out behind Montgomery Mall Launching long fluorescent tubes up against the wall
Take me there, take me there Oh, take me anywhere Let me be by your side, in revolt Let me wear your overcoat
We fluttered through junior high like a cloud Got grounded in tenth against a chain link fence They were sent away to trade school when summer set I got left once again to fend for myself

She rose Olympic from out of the pool The pinking shears in her hand bright like a dagger I stood before her in nothing but my overcoat Held up my sleeve torn and tattered
Take me there, take me there Oh, take me anywhere Let me be by your side, don't say no Let me keep my overcoat
