Blue Öyster Cult - Florida Man

Lyrics to Florida Man by Blue Öyster Cult

Should you ever settle down in the Sunshine State You should know of its tangled fate... How the conquistador came down to Florida Long before it had a name The medicine man of the Seminole Knelt at the sacred flame And he cursed the soul of the conquistador And his son, and his sons, and the young ones Of the Florida Man Florida Man - Florida Man - Florida Man Down at the mall Where the boas crawl Ted makes love to a concrete wall (Florida Man!) His brother, Red, said his Uncle Ned Found Elvis in a loaf of bred High on meth, there's little Beth The neighbor's cat is on her breath Dan dreams he's got wings of fire He's waking' and shaking' on a power wire Florida Man - Florida Man - Florida Man Slim sees his face on a moonlit wave Gets a shovel, digs his own grave Lee hates plate glass, he drives right through it Said "Alice's caterpillar made him do it" A Miami Nurse snatches a purse Drives down the freeway in reverse Rip asks the cops to test his drugs After they find him hiding underneath a rug Florida Man - Florida Man - Florida Man Don't you laugh It could be you The Seminole curse always comes true You can jeer but you don't understand That any fragile soul Can be a Florida Man
