Brackish Boy Lyrics - Frank Black

This man he was a Mexican 

Oh yeah 

Adopted into Norwegian 

Oh yeah 

Turned into American 

Oh yeah 

But he felt a Mexican 

Oh yeah 

He was a walking fish 

Oh yeah 

Down Mexico way 

He had to learn Spanish 

Oh yeah 

He was a walking fish 

Oh yeah 

He was feeling so brackish 

Between Norwegian and English 

He decided it was time to go 

To find the people that he did not know 

But the road to Mexico 

Oh yeah 

They sure go fast but they should go slow 

Oh yeah 

It's a dangerous road 

By now you know that he was fucked 

By now you know he had no luck 

He was smashed head on by a giant truck 

Down Mexico way
