Jandek - Ballad Of Robert lyrics

Robert Robert Robert

Down at the halfway house house

Robert down at the halfway house

He's livin' at the halfway house

The halfway house

You know the halfway house

It's got a ???

They put a cross on your back and you get real mean

Down at the halfway house

Robert (ha ha) at the halfway house

He's got a cross on your back

He's got roller skates and the're hitched up to his feet

He goes right down the street on the roller skates

They're from the halfway house

Ya' know this man Robert

He's no man he ain't no mouse

He's from the halfway house

Tell him he's from the halfway house

Now the doctor says good morning

And Robert looked up 'n he had blisters on his fingers

And the doctor said “Robert, Robert” he said “Robert”

“You are not the halfway house, the halfway house”

He's Robert from the halfway house
