salad - on a leash

I ripped your picture off the wall, I put it on a leash
I ripped your picture off the wall, yes indeed
how come you never sent my letters home
You left them in the trash,
when I sent you my best wishes,
you only did a dash

I took your picture off the wall, I put it on my leash
When you wrote my epitaph, did you have to be so beefy ?
Did you have to be so beefy ?, Did you have to be so beefy ?
Beefy, beefy

I ripped your picture off the wall, I put it on a leash
You know the fact that you're so tall,
I have to reach from underneath

No you don't know what I do
You just stake a claim on booze
You say you will be in the news
You just stake a claim on blues
And when I tell you I'm no friend
You just go round and round the bend
And everyone's a little mad
On a voyage round their dad

I ripped your picture off the wall
I put it on a leash, Perhaps I wasn't there at all
When you were underneath

How come you never called me your best friend ?
You leftme on the wall
When we went skating on that icy pond
You seemed to help me fall
