Westside Cowboy Strange Taxidermy Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Did you know when you came out covered in silver
They'd put your bones in the caves?
Did they tell you you'd live for sixty two years
'Til the skin fell away from your face?

[Chorus]
I don't know why they've tucked you behind
A strange taxidermy display
I'd move the doors to greet you
If everything worked out my way

[Verse 2]
I reckon you did a mighty good job
Pulling those bolts in the cold
I wonder how many friends you outlived
If any got to see you get old

[Chorus]
I don't know why they've tucked you behind
A strange taxidermy display I'd move the doors to greet you
If everything worked out my way

[Bridge]
Well, old Billy, I think I do love you
You've mastered the passing of time
If I sat here and watched you forever
Would they hang me in there by your side?

Well, old Billy, I think I do love you
You've mastered the passing of time
If I sat here and watched you forever
Would they hang me in there by your side?

[Chorus]
I don't know why they've tucked you behind
A strange taxidermy display
I'd move the doors to greet you
If everything worked out my way
