about

Originally from "Horseshoe Theory" (2016)

lyrics

The troll girl was found under a bridge
On highway 18 outside of Lost Springs, Wyoming
Naked and ragged, she was only 8 years old
The tests suggest she had no memories
The mayor gave a 30-day decree
If by that time no one had come to claim her
Then she would join the Randolph family
Those sterile newlyweds were only 23

Oh, trolls!
Sometimes we can never be redeemed
From the decisions we made at 23

The moment troll girl turned 17
She headed west to the Willamette Valley
She instantly loved the anonymity
Blending in with Portland’s freaks with a fake ID
She even found some reputable jobs
A school bus driver, part time selling weed
But after all her merchandise was robbed
A questionable business deal bought her a pregnancy

Oh, trolls!
Sometimes we can never be redeemed
From the decisions we made at 17

So troll girl had a son
He started smoking at age 4
9 years later was a Juggalo
With gang leanings hardcore
Then troll boy met a new troll girl
He knocked her up at 12
His mother chased them down the street
Took her katana off the shelf
They were not welcome at her house
So they moved under a bridge
Birthed on the banks of the Willamette
What a fitting way for trolls to live!

Oh, trolls!
Sometimes we can never be redeemed
From the decisions we made at age 13
Oh sometimes we can never be redeemed
Especially when our stories can’t be believe
But they’re true, they’re true, they’re true
