Never knew why he would fall victim to five-dollar highs
Bending his stories, inventing new lies
-telling of cancers
One way to avoid questions and answers

And Karl, he
-he
by keeping his knees on the ground
The most likely one to achieve such a high
And Karl is missing tonight

What can I say to his poor father?
He calls every day looking for clues
There
The candy man

And Karl, he
-he
by keeping his knees on the ground
His face in the dirt and his
And Karl is missing tonight

Maybe I
You just wanna
But is it worth the exchange? Does it keep you from harm?
The last time I saw you
like a child

And Karl, he
-he
by keeping his knees on the ground
He
And Karl is missing tonight
And Karl is out of my life
Out of my life
