Lyrics:
I got a room down in Hollywood. The rent was cheap. It was this rooming house.
There was an old man who lived in the room next to me.
We shared a bathroom in the hall. He'd stare at me through a crack in his door.
The day I moved in, I was playing my guitar. He started banging on the wall with a boot.
Then he came out, started banging on my door, kicked it open.
"Watch out, son! I got a tasergun. Watch out, son! I got a tasergun."
He's on the loose. He's got the juice like a mad dog with no tail. (teeth?)

He spent his pension in adult bookstores, bringing strange young men home.
He'd leave me notes in the bathroom accusing me of stealing his toilet paper.
Come out into the hallway, dressed up in a greasy bathrobe and try to start a fight.
He became known as the Electric Old Man and I still see him with his taser, coming at me.
"Watch out, son! I got a tasergun. Watch out, son! I got a tasergun."
He's on the loose. He's got the juice like a pigeon with no wing.
