Guthrie is a man made of garbage His dreams they rot and leak He has banana peel hair Hes got old martini olive eyes But did you see him before the light died Years ago Way back to a time when charm and wit flowed freely from his mouth His tongue a silver spoon His dealing hand like a golden talon Tryna ***** the light out His feet the vehicle taking him to paradise He says "you only live once, better live the burning life."

Garbage Guthrie
Guthrie is a man made of garbage His dreams they rot and leak He has banana peel hair Hes got old martini olive eyes But did you see him before the light died Years ago Way back to a time when charm and wit flowed freely from his mouth His tongue a silver spoon His dealing hand like a golden talon Tryna ***** the light out His feet the vehicle taking him to paradise He says "you only live once, better live the burning life."
