The boy looks high
He looks higher than the sky
You can see it in his eyes
Watch as he tries
And the city never lets him go
So he never tries
The city never lets you go
So you never try
He's bigger than a breadbox
In cis California
His path was on the parks
Running gun it to Houston
The city was a shotgun
Ending in sunshine
But the sunshine never ends
So he never tries
Well we dug a hole
Filled it up with other holes, in these other holes
We found a home
Hid away our hungry men
If it takes us sixty years I'll go
The boy looks high
Looks higher than the sky
You can see it in his eyes
Watch how he cries
The path was on a straight line
Church street to Houston
Houston to the Butte
Coming straight back to Houston
Well we dug a hole
Filled it up with other holes, in these other holes
We dug a hole
And buried all those hungry men (all those hungry men)
If it takes us sixty years
If it takes us sixty years
If it takes us sixty years I'll
Dig a hole and I'll find the fire
If it takes us sixty years I'll
Dig another hole
(If it takes us sixty years
If it takes us sixty years I'll
If it takes us sixty years I'll)
Well we found a hole
We found it with some other holes and we climbed inside
We climbed back out
We left them by the hungry men, all the hungry men
If it takes us sixty years I'll
Dig a hole and I'll find the fire
If it takes us sixty years I'll
Dig another hole
He got it in his head he made
More money than the straight man, the straight man
He got it in his head, he made
More money than the straight man
He got it in his head he made
More than the straight man, the straight man
He got it in his head he made
More than the straight man (Straight man)
The boy looks high
