Danny Carlisle
From Vic's 1990 album "Little"
[Verse 1]
C F C C
He wanted a tree fort more than anything
Am G F F
Yes he wanted to build and defend one on his own
C F C Am
But the neighbor boys' BB seige was overwhelming
G F C C
So he a-won't be building his dream tree fort anymore
[Verse 2]
C F C C
He received a five-speed Schwinn for Christmas
Am G F F
So he built a ramp out of the plywood and a stump
C F C Am
And at nights he dreamed Evel Knievel
G F C C
And a canyon to jump in a-his backyard
[Chorus 1]
F G Am G
Danny um-Carlisle, he don't give a shit about the Contras
F G Am G F
Danny um-Carlisle, he's barely grown and he's used up most of his options
F F
And still he would rather dream, dream, dream
F C C
And still he would rather dream than fuck
[Verse 3]
C F C C
Once he used a pocket knife to kill a garden snake
Am G F F
Yes he chopped that evil serpent into fours
C F C Am
And when he raised his eyes to heaven as a soldier
G F C C
He wiped the blood of bad snake on his shirt
[Chorus 2]
F G Am G
Yeah Danny um-Carlisle, he don't give a shit about the Contras
F G Am G
Yeah Danny um-Carlisle, he's barely grown and he's used up most of his
F
options
F F
And still he would rather dream, dream, dream
F C C
And still he would rather dream than fuck
C C
