Chicken Wire
The Felice Brothers
Very soon I will be in the deep blue sea
Wrapped in chicken wire by my own device
The navy'll come, the sharks will bite
It will be so hard to fight
Wrapped in chicken wire by my own device
Oh mama, don't go
Don't leave me alone, Lord
Wall to wall, the carpet crawls
Up the stairs and down the hall
To the invalid, in his dying bed
Upon the floor, the guests will step
And everyone will leave except
The invalid in his dying bed
Oh mama, don't go
Don't leave him alone
The maid'll call the ambulance
As the children dance to Billie Jean
By the neighbor's fence
The medics'll come, haul him away
And as they leave, they'll sweetly say
I'm sorry, man, but it's for the best
Oh mama, don't go
Don't leave me alone
