I see you comin' and I'll snap back into my shell!

I wish I was a turtle
I see you coming and I'll snap back into my shell (repeat)
The things that we've been doing
You know we're both going straight to hell
I wish I was a skunk
I'd spray you just to keep you away (repeat)
You've been skipping out on bills all over town
And I'm the one who's left behind to pay
I wish I was a rabbit
I'd run away and hide down in my hole (repeat)
Maybe sleep all through the wintertime
Try and purify my soul
I stepped into the barroom
And your redneck buddies greeted me at the door
They used me for a broom Swept all the beer cans right off the floor
They said, “Go out there and tell the scarecrow you ain’t in Kansas any more.”
I wish I was a blue jay
I'd fly away to the top of the highest tree (repeat)
You'd be circling around down by the roots
Ah, you ain't never gonna find me
I wish I was a turtle
I see you coming and I'll snap back into my shell (repeat)
The things that we've been doing
You know we're both going straight to hell
