WolfAlice

 Wolf Alice, Wolf Alice

What's it all about?

Got a bullet in your shirt

It's gonna make you shout

Crying out loud with the

Pain of the world

Well you cry like a wolf

But you're just a little girl


Shoot me from your wigwam

Shoot at me through the trees

There's plenty of lice on Alice's knees

Got a gun, got a sun

And whole row of fleas

All jumping around

your sandcastles by the seas


Wolf Alice I love ya

You're gonna make me bleed

All the way to Alabama with

Your mouth full of greed

return your red coat to the fire

Wolf Alice you were trapped

By one man's desire


I should have held your hand 

as you walked through the wood

But I was just a wolf not a Robin Hood

I should have delivered you safe 

to your grandma's house

But instead I ate her up

Now I feel such a louse


My mother always told me

Not to carry a loaded gun

But now when I look at her

I think that I'm not her son


I'm a failure as a man

And I never made it as a wolf

I hope you understand

Or is it that you needed proof?


I should eat my ham

And shoot my bears

But I'm in a wigwam

Full of my own cares


Well they're looking to me

To fill in the black gap

But I'm lost in the wood

And I don't have a map


I should've been born a wolf

But I was only born a man

Now there's a big gulf

Between what I want and 

what I am


Burn me with your fire

Hurt me with your stakes

It was all my own desire

That made my mistakes


I've got ruby red shoes

I stole from a witch

And poisonous potion

That's making me itch


I start to grow hairs

On the end of my nose

And I keep climbing the stairs

And taking off my clothes


Shoot me once inside the temple

I've come here to prey

Because I don't like the hemp oil

Now I've fallen in love 

With a fallen Angel

She flies like a dove

Just as the bells toll

The Wigwam song

 All I need's a wigwam

In somebody's garden

All I need is you ma'am

And my tent pole'll harden


All I need's a clay pipe

To smoke my weed in

But you play no hype

You keep on weeding


Houses are short things

Cut like the green grass blade

Cut down tomorrow

Like they've never been made


Why must we live in

Than blow in the wild wind

Carry me to everglades

Green like the grass blades

The Wigwam Poem



In the Wigwam, ma'me
I met the Wigwam man
Too much to figure
The little horse got bigger
In the Wigwam, ma'me
The pig ham ram
They were big damn lambs
In the Tim-tam clan
I bite a shoe shine can
To clean my tooth line plan
Beneath a canvass caravan
With the Wigwam man

Sticks and stones may make my home
But words will never hurt me
Said the Wigwam
To the Igloo
Said the Huron to the Eskimo
Says the ice brick to the tree
You keep warm, but warm isn't free
When you're in wigwam town
Better get reborn
At the battle of Little Big Horn
