Down by Law - Gruesome Gary lyrics

rate me

I remember when we walked as one

and all the truths were known

and we were scrappers in the schoolyard fights

talked tough on the telephone

but there was always one big guy who feared nothing and no one

his name was gary and he looked so mean

he wasn't a lot of fun

when he walked by, you got the fuck out of the way

now gary was the schoolyard bully

didn't have a lot of friends

he had kids do his homework for him

stupid til the end

on graduation day he stood the tallest, and he got his degree

he couldn't add two plus two

let loose on society

when he walked by, you got the fuck out of the way

gary was

was the top cat in his day

everybody said that he'd get his someday

and I swear to this day that I still see his face

when I have a bad dream at night he's the monster to my right

now gruesome gary met his match at a young and tender age

he got a whipping at the mall one night, and the police took him away

the town cheered and the geeks all jeered, but i'll just make a bet

gary will live on in infamy -- he was the meanest guy you ever met!
