Ode Lyrics by Soul Asylum

Ode Lyrics

    Well my friend jud he was a fuddy-dud
    Chewed his cud, was a stick in the mud
    I swear he hated everyone
    And he's bumming nickels and bumming dimes
    But most of all you know he's just bumming time

    And every day was a bad day
    They walked out and on and over him
    He was turning gray
    Never knew love he gave up on hope
    Stayed in bed and he stopped using soap was a dirty old man
    But he never said poor little old me
    Poor poor

    Now one fine day he won the lottery
    Instant millionaire without a care it didn't change a thing
    Drove up to reno he lost everything at a roadside casino
    You know he never made it into town
    Where the bright lights trickle down
    He was a casualty

    Well he _____________________ and he ran out of food
    And all he got was more lewd and crude
    He was very rude
    The only thing he hated worse than the city
    Was charity and self pity he'd been around
    I talked to him that's what i found

    He was a casualty

    Poor little old me
    Poor poor casualty
