(1,964 posts)gets his ass thrown in the can,
spins a lie any size,
attracts the cops just like flies,
Look out! Here comes the Florida Man!
Is he dumb? Listen bud,
All his thoughts are clear as mud.
Common sense, he ignores,
Another bust is his reward.
Hey there, here comes the Florida Man!
In the dead of night, at the scene of a crime,
You can bet your ass he'll get caught every time!
Florida Man, Florida Man,
Freaky neighborhood Florida Man
Has no friends, he's ignored,
Another bust is his reward.
To him, life is a great big fuck up
Wherever there's a lock up,
You'll find the Florida Man!
