Killer cats in the Caribbean

Careless cod slithering in the nets 

Green blue yellow red 

And the rain and the oil slicks 

In the watery parts of the street 

And the ice breaking as I walk 

Really just testing the strength 

Of an ice cold frosty morning 

Just goin on a long walk 

Nothing new 

And the crusty cars need shoveling out 

Oh mosquitoes on the big leaves 

Waiting for you arm to appear 

Hungry for your blood 

Walking up the mountain in a swarm 

I've got to be doing something wrong 

But where do I turn to be right? 

It doesn't seem anywhere is right for very long 

Am I right? Or am I missing something? 

Tell me all you got 

I still don't think it could be enough 

I'm not asking for anything special 

I was on my knees screaming 

Where could I go from there? 

It's only what you do, that's all 

Take the pain and the joy 

Eat it up for breakfast 

It's all there is my friend 

If you got a pocket full of something special 

It's nothing new to me
