I would run away,
but I got no place to go.
Live on a beach,
or maybe in a cave.
Eating bats,
sleeping on the sand.
But of these things,
I know nothing.
So where would I go?

I would kill myself,
but I don't know how.
I ain't got a knife,
and no hose for the car.
Got no pills,
and I can't tie a noose.

Some of these things,
I'd probably do.
If I knew how,
or bothered to learn.
Maybe?
