LYRICS
by David Cohen

Making his way to the links each day
Says everything he’s not
Taking a break to curb his fury
Will not help a lot
Shouldn’t he really go away?

No more crimes where he steals our rights
That ship must never sail
Guess his little angel thinks
Her dad might go to jail
And his third divorce will cost some dough

Someday he’ll have to go
Where everybody knows he’s lame
But ol’ Bubba’s glad he came
He’s gonna be where he can see
The dress codes all the same
And he’s gonna sport a number but not a name

Rolls out of bed, to a cold metal head
While mornings start first light
All his kids ran off to Europe
They never even write
And his cellmates name is “Brother Earle”

We’re glad there's one place in the world
Where everybody knows his game
And they won’t be sad he came
He’s gonna go where people know
He’s been stripped of his fame
And he's gonna sport a number but not a name

Where everybody knows his game
He’ll see his life go down the drain
Where everybody knows he’s lame
And no one cares that he’s insane
Where everybody knows he’s lame
Where all his talk will be in vain
Where everybody knows he’s lame
And no one’s ever mad he came
