Lyrics transcript
Reviewed lyrics for Deathclaw Got a Crush on Me.
There's a horrific tale about how I got these
scars on my back.
And before you ask, no, I wasn't fighting raiders.
No, I wasn't a super mutant.
I got chased halfway across the Commonwealth.
by a death claw
with love on its mind
I was walking through the swamp when I heard
a heavy tread
Turned around and saw 600 pounds of ugly head
He came charging through the cattails Grinning ear to
ear
And I swear that giant lizard looked genuinely sincere
He dropped his head beside me Like a biming
on pets Then he knocked me six feet side
Just to show me no regrets
I scrambled to my feet And said, buddy, let
me go
He wagged that mighty tail And knocked me down
some more That death claw wants me Lord, what
have I done?
He ain't trying to kill me He thinks we're
having fun He follows me through mud He follows
through the rain If I stop to catch my
breath, he's on me once again I shoot him
in the shoulder, he thinks we're playing games That
big old horny death claw don't understand my pain
I climbed up on a truck and thought I'd
finally lost him He put his claws up on
the hood And started trying to climb I yelled
back off, mister He just gave a happy roar
Then he knocked me off the truck And started
chasing me some more I hid behind a ruined
wall He snipped me through the crack I heard
those claws scratching And I knew he'd find me
bad I ran toward the red rocket With that
beast right on my heels He lookin' like an
oversized puppy Yeah, puppies ain't automobiles That death claw
wants me Lord, what have I done?
He ain't tryna kill me He thinks we're havin'
fun He follows me through mud He follows through
the rain If I stop to catch my breath
He's on me once again I shoot him in
the shoulder He thinks we're playing games That big
old lovesick death claw Don't understand my pain
I made it into Diamond City Thinking I was
finally safe
The death clock ain't barreling in And nearly cleared
the gate The guard started shooting He didn't even
care He just kept on looking at me With
that stupid loving stare I ducked behind the merchant
He stuck his snout inside I said somebody help
me, the merchant said good luck guy I fought
raiders, I fought gunners, I fought super mutants too
I stared down a death claw and lived to
tell the truth But nothing in the commonwealth has
scared me half as bad As one six hundred
pound lizard thinkin' I'm his favorite pal I finally
told him, listen buddy
It's not you, it's me
Mostly because you're a deathclaw
I tried givin' him a bomb He didn't want
the cow Tried throwing him some red stick, he
just looked at me somehow I tossed him a
raider, well that made him stop and stare Then
he dropped the raider's corpse and followed me upstairs
I spent three whole days trying to lose that
beast Every time I thought I done it, there
he'd be behind me The death claw wants me
Lord, what have I done?
He ain't tryna kill me, thinks we're havin' fun
He follows me through mud He follows through the
rain He sees me as his sweetheart I see
them as a pain I finally reached sanctuary Thought
I'd found some peace Then I heard those heavy
footsteps coming from the trees He came up real
gentle
Put his big old head against my shoulder Started
making that awful growling noise
I said buddy that's not gonna work he licked
my face I moved to Diamond City he followed
me
