Lyrics
He was born a skinny white boy back in 1987
But peace and love were nowhere to be found, yeah
The other children knew him as a scrawny freak of nature
Their words would taunt him in this breeding ground, yeah
Chorus (2X) :
Hey, hey stick boy
Skin and bony
Sad and lonely
-break-
Music was his Mother and she gave him consolation
Practicing all day and every night, yeah
Their words now cold and empty but he used that motivation
And now those people call him "Outa Sight"
Stick Boy your Horn's a blowing
Your Saxophone really gets me goin'
Those kids in school who shoved you
Now all stand in line and love you
Chorus (2X) :
Hey, hey stick boy
Skin and bony
No more lonely
Stick Boy your trumpet's blowin'
Your talkin' horn really gets me goin'
Stick Boy We're your army
We know you wail so lay it on me.
-Nasty trumpet plunger Solo-
Stick Boy your Horns are blowing
Your Saxophone really gets me goin'
Stick Boy We're your army
We know you wail so lay it on me.
-Nasty sax solo-
Chorus (3X) :
Hey, hey stick boy
Skin and bony
No more lonely
