My Brother`s Trapper Keeper — текст песни (Ookla The Mok)

I got a call from a dear old friend
He`s the kind of friend you can depend on
The kind of friend you can depend on til the end
The kind of friend who`ll say, can you lend me
A dollar or two or three or four
In fact can you lend me just a little bit more
Oh and I borrowed your car I didn`t go far
I left your car keys in the yard
Oh and you`re out of gas I was driving real fast
How am I supposed to know who`s yard?
I remember there was grass oh if anybody asks
I`ve been here for the last three days and nights
Just say I never left your side
Better dim the lights and hide
And besides I told them I was you
And it`s true there`s a few things I`d like you to do
My friend Big Lou who arrives tonight from Peru
He`s just passing though
Lou and five or six guys from his crew
Will be staying for a day or two
I`m praying that you`ll make it through
If I were you I`d buy lots of wine
And oh yeah there`s just one thing more
One-Eyed Vinnie`s back is sore
He kind of took a slug in the spine
So I hope you don`t mind taking the floor
For an indeterminant length of time
But after all he`s my dear old friend
And you know he can depend on me
And when we die I won`t stop to wonder why
Just there I`ll lie
high on lame excuses and empty promises
I can`t justify it
I can`t just close my eyes and deny it
I`d tell you the moral if I were able
But this isn`t some kind of Aesop`s Fable
It more like the story of Cain and Abel
It just took a while to figure out which one I was
