Behind the counter stood on crutches made of wood

A one-legged girl with blue-grey eyes warm and wise

I fled from that place and from that lovely face

That the one-legged girl stole my heart

And I need help

Cold November morning

Buried under trees

I would stay here all day long

Except I have to eat

Crack the woods

Crack them open both with shovels and yells

Got to find little people got to ask for their help

And I tell them

If I could run fast as fast as the Flash

Or be as cool as Ash in Army of Darkness

If I were a Gai-King or maybe a Viking

Stronger than the Thing

Then I could win the one-legged girl

Getting close to nighttime

Running out of steam

By now I know my family's looking

And they'll know right where I'll be

Spy the eyes in the twilight

Small and bright

Warm and wise

Little hats little fingers

And a flask full of wine

And I'd tell them

If my hand were wheels

And if my feet were wheels

Then I could roll over all of my rivals

If I could cast a spell or do something swell

So that she could tell I was worth her attention

Arms drag me away

The little eyes wink out

Stuffed inside my pocket is a flask of wine

Now I can run as fast as the Flash

Or be as cool as Ash in Army of Darkness

Now I'll be a Gai-King or maybe a Viking

Stronger than the Thing

Now I can win the one-legged girl
