Scavenger Babies by The Mountain Goats Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wake up all the birds of prey
Dig your tools out from the clay
Seal the exits of your room
Watch the cactus flowers bloom

[Refrain]
And send my regards to the boys down on the corner
Yeah, send my regards to the boys down on the corner

[Verse 2]
Build a house from sticks and mud
Listen to the poison singing in your blood
Pull yourself a tall cool drink
Carve your initials in the bathroom sink

[Refrain]
And send my regards to the boys down on the corner
Yeah, send my regards to the boys down on the corner

[Verse 3]
The city of Norwalk in my dreams
Rises like Atlantis from a watery grave
Burn the things you have to burn
Save all the people you're supposed to save
[Refrain]
And send my belongings to the drop box in Tijuana
And send my regards to the boys down on the corner
