lyrics

Basil Spring is paranoid.
After his father had run away from his mother,
He was ashamed that at age 9 or 10
He should be sleeping with his mother.
Later he quit several jobs- (incoherent) -
There they were saying he was going crazy.
They laughed at him.
"It won't be long now", they said.
It was a girl. the girl in the salvation army hostel.
Never seen that on a page before.
Who told them?
She was after him to marry him.
Down south she followed him 500 miles,
When he moved east 400 more he saw her on the streetcar and
Talking in the street behind him sure he was going crazy.
He's gonna lose his air first and then he's gonna go crazy.
