i'm not running away from you
i'mrunning away from me
before we both end up on the corner
begging on the street

i'm not taking my time
i'm taking whats mine
and before i die i'll be filled up
with all the things i find

once in the middle now i'm far behind
grew just a little and it felt unkind
catch me up in a golden net
hold me still until i set

i'm a ethnic jew
but whats it  mean to you
i don't practice and i don't speak yiddish 
or hebrew
you're an alley cat
and you have got 9 lives
i'm just a dog with no collar
and hungry eyes

i'm a nervous guy
and i don't know why
the seasons come and go
and i sit here staring at broken eye
when there's nothing left
that's when you're finally free
to go about your business 
like you would just normally
