Low John Prine Lyrics

i verified the math
and double-checked the syntax
i tried to heal your body
but it just kept coming back
you never had a chance
i thought i was a poet
i had so much to say
but now i want to see the blood
i want to make them pay
yeah, i can see the day

i made a place for children
they wanted all the answers
i gave them all my lectures
and now they're perfect dancers
'cuz i'm a perfect dancer
sha la la la la
sha la la la la
