lyrics

Billy Cruz
Was a kid with some paint on his face
Who wore no shoes
But what he touched it turned to gold
Billy Cruz
He put his head some far out places
But would not loose
His touch for that rock and roll

He made a lengthy confession
That Eve was the first girl he’d kissed
And it made him need a religion
So he called himself
An Animist

Billy Cruz
Was a kid with some paint on his face
Who wore no shoes
But what he touched it turned to gold
Billy Cruz
Put his head some far out places
But would not loose
His touch for that rock and roll

Billy rode 70 miles
Leap leap!
And still did not sweat off his style
Leap leap!
He finally showed up with a smile
Leap leap
And told us he’s back from the wild
Back from the wild
Back from the wild

Billy!
You must call your manager
Billy!
You worry your girl
Billy!
So in with the scavengers
Billy!
Your heads in a whirl

Sit between two redwood trees
Triangle up
Triangle down
Do your rituals
Watch the cars go by
Throw away your phone
And skip this town

He’s likes to play some black metal
He’s likes shape shifting into a black panther
He likes to be kind and thoughtful
He likes he likes to let everybody know
