Eli
lyrics by Shaun Mangan


Eli on the rooftops
Takin' out the paper boy
Thought it was an M-16
And it was a B.B. toy

Eli, what you on?
This ain't no Viet Nam
Let's try to keep it calm

Eli, drop your camouflage
I can see you plain and good
Your still just sixteen
In a suburb neighborhood

Eli, you ain't no veteran
I thought you were my friend
Don't try that shit again!

Eli, Eli, Eli

Moved to somewhere new
And I can't imagine why...
