lyrics

Fat Jack bled out of his nose
And lit a garbage fire on the big house boat
Oil and flames lit across the water
In the wide black eyes of the postman's daughter

The cops searched with with their headlights
But some bikers found him out in the middle of the night
Buried in the sand at four AM
Tequila bottle locked in his cold dead hands

So sad that he died, a legend in his time
Could have turned it around if he just could have found some
Meaning out of life, hero in hindsight
A legend in his time

Suman was a genius
No revelation was enough
Great black beard and cosmic sight
He was an alchemist of the endless light
Molecule upon molecule
He slaved to forge the perfect brew
When he found the formulaic key
Divine beings came to set him free

So sad that he died, a legend in his time
Could have turned it around if he just could have found some
Meaning out of life, hero in hindsight
A legend in his time
