Crab

From the album Trying Too Hard, released February 2004

This song was made from some old music I had written a long time ago and never did anything with it. I resurrected it, added some new lyrics and called it a song.

Lyrics

When I was young,
Just a little crab,
Life was full of fun
Hidin' from the sun.

Now that I am older,
I think I understand
That life is not as simple
As digging in the sand.

You gotta watch your back
To prevent attacks
There's hunger and there's thirst
But dying is the worst.

And so I work all day
Just so I can say,
"I have made it through,
But tomorrow's coming soon."
