To the tune of:
"Leave me Alone" (Big Ole Ruby Red Dress) by Helen Reddy |
Big ole Xboo wanders round the town
Talkin to themselves now, almost always down
Don't you get too close now, Xbooee runs away
Poor ole Xbooee doesn't want to talk about those days
I can hear them say
CHORUS:
Leave me alone, won't you leave me alone
Please leave me alone now, leave me alone
Leave me alone, please leave me alone, yes leave me
It's been 25 years and I don't want to talk
All your helping just makes me want to squawk
Please leave me alone, no leave me alone
Leave me alone, just leave me alone, oh leave me
Ole Xbooey hardly ever laughs
Thinks they got no future and never made peace with their past
Something hurt that Booey, something they can't bear
Ya look at them real close now, you see a lotta fear there
But they still say
Leave me alone, won't you leave me alone
Please leave me alone now, leave me alone
Leave me alone, please leave me alone, yes leave me
It's been 25 years and I don't want hear it
And your bringing it up makes me want to walk
Please leave me alone, no leave me alone
Leave me along, just leave me alone, oh leave me
Some folks say that Stewie took their life
Taught everything bad to Xbooey, then just let them lie
They try to hide it, try to keep things cool
But something happened to Xbooey, and now they want nothing to do
With those who want to displace that time with peace and they cry
Leave me alone, won't you leave me alone
Please leave me alone now, leave me alone
Leave me alone, please leave me alone, yes leave me
It's been 25 years and I don't want to talk
All your helping just makes me want to squawk
Please leave me alone, no leave me alone
Leave me along, just leave me alone, oh leave me
