A man walks down the street and says "Why am I soft in the middle? Why am I soft in the middle? When the rest of my life is so hard I need a shot at redemption And I want a photo opportunity Don't want to end up a cartoon In a cartoon graveyard" Bonedigger, Bonedigger Dogs in the moonlight Far away from my well-lit door And Mr. Beerbelly, Beerbelly Get these mutts away from me You know, I don't find this stuff amusing anymore So if you'll be my bodyguard I can be your long lost pal And I can call you Betty And Betty, when you call me, you can call me Al A man walks down the street and says "Why am I short of attention? Got a short little span of attention And, whoa, my nights are so long Where's my wife and family? What if I die here? Who'll be my role model Now that my role model is gone, gone?" He ducked down the alley With some roly-poly little bat-faced girl And all along, all along There were incidents and accidents There were hints and allegations So if you'll be my bodyguard I can be your long lost pal I can call you Betty And Betty, when you call me, you can call me Al A man walks down the street It's a street in a strange world Maybe it's the third world and Maybe it's his first time around Doesn't speak the language And he holds no currency He is a foreign man and He is surrounded by the sound, the sound of Cattle in the marketplace Scatterlings of orphanages And he looks around, around And he sees angels in the architecture Spinning in infinity And he says, "Amen and Hallelujah" So if you'll be my bodyguard I can be your long lost pal And I can call you Betty And Betty, when you call me, you can call me Al If you'll be my bodyguard I can be your long lost pal And I can call you Betty And Betty, when you call me, you can call me Al
