I joined a band with a guy named Michael Cades
Though we knew we sounded bad we stuck to it anyway
And now in my defense I think he may have been strange
Was it something that we said
Would it happen anyway
Cause we were done before it ever could begin
The strangest of anything I've ever been in
He's upped and gone he took his amp and ran away
And we're short one tell us if you see Michael Cades
It wasn't long when he took us on the road
Drove us 700 miles to play one and only show and now when
When we arrived and they said we couldn't play
Something happened in his head and he turned and drove away
And we were done before it ever could begin
The strangest of anything I've ever been in
He's upped and gone he took his amp and ran away
And we're short one tell us if you see Michael Cades
Michael Cades have you been OK
Have you been brushing your teeth with a cigar
Did you make it out of Chestertown
Are you buried in your girlfriend's yard
For some of us well there is no other way
Than to say nothing at all when there's nothing left to say
How bout that poor little guy he couldn't stay
That was it for me and John and our walk with Michael Cades
