Battle
Dr. Fubalous Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Breathing underwater
Feels easy when you've drowned before
And holding your breath in a fight
Will make you beg for more
And more
And more
Accepting that you may just die
Right here on the floor
Is the only way redemption comes
And she never brings a cure
If I lose another battle
You're gonna lose another soul
I'm so tired of being shattered
And I'm so scared of growing old
But what if this endless grief would cease?
I'd take control of me
I'd pardon my pain
Make sure I never drown myself again
But what if this endless grief would cease?
I'd take control of me
I'd pardon my pain
Make sure I never drown myself again
But my world is empty
There are no churches in this town
Just people who sell me whiskey - Oh, Lord
And they say drink your worries down
If I lose another battle
You're gonna lose another soul
I'm fucking tired of being shattered
Oh Lord
Oh Lord




Oh Lord
And I'm so scared of growing old

In nineteen and fifty-nine we took a little hike

We took a little pizza and we took some sauerkrauts
We brought pizza and sauerkraut with us on the trip


And we marched along together till we heard the girl scouts
We walked together until we heard the girl scouts


We're the boys from Camp Kookamonga
We are the boys from Camp Kookamonga


Our mothers sent us here for to study nature's ways
Our mothers sent us to Camp Kookamonga to learn about nature


We learned to make sparks by rubbing sticks together
We learned how to start a fire with sticks


But if we catch the girls then we'll set the woods ablaze
If we catch the girl scouts, we'll create chaos in the woods


And I was mad because me mother sent me up here ha-ha-ha
I was upset because my mother sent me to Camp Kookamonga


Well we crept up to the water and we see the girls a-swimming
We crept up to the water and saw the girls swimming


There must've been a hundred of them pretty young women
There were a lot of pretty young girls there


They looked so fine even birds forgot to sing
They looked so good that even the birds stopped singing


We lay down in the poison oak and didn't say a thing
We hid in the poison oak and didn't make any noise


Hey will one of you fellas scratch my back?
Can one of you scratch my back?


Well our counselor said we could take them by surprise
Our counselor suggested we surprise the girls


If we didn't say a word till we looked them in the eyes
We shouldn't talk until we looked them in the eyes


We kept real still and we had our eyes aglued
We remained quiet with our eyes fixed on them


We saw how they were dressed they were swimming in the
We noticed they were dressed while swimming


Well now...


Hey fellas wait for me
Wait for me


Well they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles
They ran through thorny plants


They ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go
They ran in places where rabbits couldn't go


They ran so fast even we couldn't catch them
They ran too fast for us to catch them


And we can even hike all the way to Buffalo
We can hike all the way to Buffalo if we need to


Well we ran right after them till everyone was pooped
We chased them until we were all tired


So we rested for a moment and our forces we regrouped
We rested and regrouped


Then we saw the girls behind some evergreens
We saw the girls hiding behind some trees


Captured by a company of United States Marines
The girls were captured by a group of Marines


Aww those big guys get everything
The Marines got the girls


A-rootie-toot-toot a-rootie-toot-toot


Ah we are the boys from the boy scout troop
We are from the boy scout troop


We don't smoke and we don't chew
We don't smoke or chew tobacco


And we don't go with the girls that do
We don't hang out with the girls who do
