Did they call you nature boy Did they say your name wrong Did they make fun of your dad Because he cried at baseball Do you feel you're out of place When you wear a collar Come on down into the swamp And hop into the water Disappear into the trees Where no one knows you're gone Ghosts of aunts and ancestors Are here where you belong Make a muddy mausoleum Hidden in the weeds Catch a slimy pickerel Just don't touch his teeth Put your boots on and your bug spray Even if you've had a rough day Time to let go of the small things Don't you know the swamp is calling Tell your mother and your father You are headed for the water Letras de cancionesTell your sister, tell your cousin Can't you hear the crickets buzzing Holy heady hellgrammites Hunting in the bog at night Hunted hollow creeping crawling Can't you hear the swarm is calling Put your boots on and your bug spray Even if you've had a rough day Time to let go of the small things Don't you know the swamp is calling Grab a net but better hurry Tell your parents not to worry Water sloshes your galoshes Tell your mother not to wash it Climb a tree and close your eyes It would be so bad to die! Hide amongst the ants and plants Just don’t meet the cormorant! From Letras Mania
