A man walks down the street
He says why am I soft in the middle now
Why am I soft in the middle
The rest of my life is so hard

I need a photo opportunity
I want a shot at redemption
Don't want to end up a cartoon
In a cartoon graveyard Bonedigger Bonedigger

Dogs in the moonlight
Far away my well lit door
Mr. Beerbelly Beerbelly
Get these mutts away from me
You know I don't find this stuff amusing anymore

If you'll be my bodyguard
I can be your long lost pal
I can call you Betty
And Betty when you call me
You can call me Al

A man walks down the street
He says why am I short of attention
Got a short little span of attention
And wo my nights are so long

Where's my wife and family
What if I die here
Who'll be my role-model
Now that my role-model is gone gone

He ducked back down the alley
With some roly-poly little bat-faced girl
All along along there were incidents and accidents
There were hints and allegations

If you'll be my bodyguard
I can be your long lost pal
I can call you Betty
And Betty when you call me
You can call me Al, call me Al

A man walks down the street
It's a street in a strange world
Maybe it's the Third World
Maybe it's his first time around

He doesn't speak the language
He holds no currency, he is a foreign man
He is surrounded by the sound
The sound, the sound

Cattle in the marketplace
Scatterings and orphanages
He looks around, around
He sees angels in the architecture
Spinning in infinity he says Amen! and Hallelujah!

If you'll be my bodyguard
I can be your long lost pal
I can call you Betty
And Betty when you call me
You can call me Al, call me Al
