Hop Along - Horseshoe Crabs Lyrics

This is a song LiS would incorporate into their game and absolutely ruin. But I'm glad the franchise ain't doing well so they won't make any more sequels

My life needed this sound

This song gives me so many emotions, it's one of the few songs I'll just play on repeat over and over all day.

I really like Bark Your Head Off, Dog... but this album does a little more for me.

I was expecting them to not be able to top Painted Shut, but imo they definitely did. Bark Your Head Off is beautiful

i love this song so much

Bittersweet amazing music

Hey did you hear me, mom?
Baby's headed home
Against your wishes
I went into the woods alone

[Verse 2]
Just look at my face
A vegetable beet red
I know you gave me money for the motel
But I came here instead
I came here instead

[Verse 3]
What I wanted when I left you
Brushed by, so close
With the money, I got pretty gone
And bloodied some poor actor's nose

[Verse 4]
One night in the park, the pellet gun
Took out an eye I came undone
One college kid came to see me
He passed me that nylon string
Asked me to play him something
So I tried my hand at "Blues Run the Game."
I barely made it through it
Then he had to go back to his parent's house upstate
Upstate
Woke from the dream and I was old
Staring at the asscrack of dawn
Walked these streets up and down
Looking for Paul Simon

[Verse 6]
All I found was myself
Lost in time I tried
Singing my songs
But I lost my mind
What have they done
With my jealous one?
Who is gonna talk trash
Long after I'm gone?
When I was young
They used to find me
Pitching Horseshoe crabs
Back into the Sun

[Outro]
What have they done
With my jealous one? (x2)
When I was young
They used to find me
Pitching Horseshoe crabs
Back into the Sun

Im so happy for people like you to exist <3

This is so sad and beautiful!

never know how i'm supposed to feel after this song. i love it though.

according to lyric genius, this is "A song from the perspective of American folk singer Jackson C Frank.
Considered influential, he never achieved much commercial success.
Shortly into his career, he fell into depression, lost confidence, and
faded from the music scene and into obscurity. He died, half-blind, of
pneumonia in 1999, aged 56."

Thank you for this comment, this made me look up Jackson C Franks music and it is really mesmerizing, anyone reading this please do yourself a favor and search him up, beautiful music maker , a true talent

great song! kinda get a strange counting crows vibe from it, in a good way.

This is fantastic! I love this song and this band!

very beautiful voice that will make me fall in love with this album! In the process of checking out the older albums

@Casey V I usually listen to rap, some old school rock, and would listen to this type of music with my older sister, but I'm digging this album. <3

this is the best song on the record

+Nate Puza Yeah for me it's between Buddy in the Parade, horseshoe crabs, waitress, and powerful man.
