Bilingual
He was a textbook case
There was no doctor in the house
And when his aunt said leave
He left as quiet as a mouse
Yeah, he robbed from the poor
He gave to himself
Looked in the glass and raised a toast to his health
He was a textbook case
But he could not read at all
He took a girl to eat
And he ran his fingers through her hair
When a car honked at her
Well, it broke the antenna right there
When she walked she swayed like a tall stalk of corn
When she kissed him she'd wish that he had never been born
He was a textbook case
But he could not read at all
Textbook case
Oh, fall down
He was lost in space
Headed, headed straight to the ground
ย
Now he lies around the yard like a dog with no bone (woo)
Staring at the sun, dreaming of throne (woo, woo)
The prison shrink just looked one time and he shook his head (woo, woo)
Textbook case was all that he said
He was a textbook case (textbook case)
But he could not read at all
Textbook case
He was a textbook case (he was a textbook case)
But he could not read at all
Textbook case
Textbook case
Textbook case
