I can barely make out a little light from the house on the cul-de-sac
|
bedroom upstairs, it's a family affair.
|
|
I've watched you in class, your eyes are cut glass and you stay covered up,
|
head to your toe, so nobody will notice you
|
|
I might not be a man yet,
|
but that bastard will never be,
|
so I'm cleaning my Weatherby
|
I sight in my scope
|
and I hope against hope.
|
I hope against hope.
|
|
Your mother seems nice, I don't understand why she won't say anything.
|
As if she can't see who he turned out to be.
|
|
I might not be a man yet,
|
but your father will never be.
|
so I load up my Weatherby,
|
and I let out my breath,
|
and I couple with death.
|
I couple with death.
|
|
Saw your father last night, and in the window the light made a silhouette.
|
Saw him hold you that way, he won't hold you that way anymore, Yvette.
