Song Notes

Android was named after Andy Ernst [Kerplunk producer].

Android was about a homeless man walking down College Ave. I was drinking coffee with Tre.

Lyrics
Hey old man in women's shoes I wonder if he knows I think he's crazy When he was young did he have dreams of Wearing women's shoes and being crazy It makes me wonder when I grow to be that age Will I be walking down the street begging for your spare change Or will I grow that old Will I still be around The way I carry on, I'll end up six feet underground And waste away When the old man was in school Did the golden rules make him go crazy Or did he hide away from hopes Behind a smile and smoking dope It's crazy It makes me wonder when I grow to be that age Will I be walking down the street begging for your spare change Or will I grow that old Will I still be around The way I carry on, I'll end up six feet underground And waste away And it seems so frightening Time passes by like lightning Before you know it, you're struck down I always waste my time on My chemical emotions It keeps my head spinning around And waste away It seems so frightening Time passes by like lightning Before you know it, you're struck down I always waste my time on My chemical emotions It keeps my head spinning around Waste away
