Aftertaste Nannygoat Lyrics

Nannygoat Lyrics

on a summer`s day when I was eight, or maybe I was six 
I befriended a new kid (no pun intended) 
oh Mommy no I don`t think this little guy can see 
his eyes are all cloudy 
  I asked why he was blind 
  Mom said that`s just god`s plan, I`d say that he`s been damned 
we loved to play and I would wake up before the sun 
before the day had begun 
I couldn`t comprehend or understand why his head would sway 
by the way, we named him Dave 
  and I cried cause you were blind 
  but you were a dynamo, you`re a goddamned nannygoat 
time to part our ways, an end to play, an end to fun and games 
an end that sadly came 
neighbor up the hill took you in when we moved away 
and gave you a place to stay 
  and I cried when I heard you died 
  you were just nine years old 
  you`re a goddamned nannygoat 
  but you were a dynamo
