Yesterday as I went out of the house

I saw a body lying down quiet as a mouse

She was lying face down in the sewer

What you do-I got up closer and realized that I knew her

What you see-All her organs comingfrom her inside

That's nasty-Slashed up skin, sliced-up hide

Tell me some more-Turned her over and saw

the tire tracks on her head

Then what-That's when I realized she was dead

 

Twisted body, chopped-off feet

her body was minced meat

Bust crawling on her arms

She's dead can't do no harm

Gnarled-up legs, broken and bent

Her last breath has been spent

 

I wonder how much you had to pay

To get your mom killed in such a bloody way

 

I saw your mommy and your mommy's dead

I watched her as she bled

Well she had-Chewed-off toes on her chopped-off feet

Say what?-I took a picture 'cause I thought it was neat

That's cold-But the thing I like seeing the best

What's that-Was the rodents using her hair as a nest

Damn-I saw your mommy and your mommy's dead

I saw your mommy and your mommy's dead

 

I know it is your allowance that you'll really miss

But make it look good at her funeral and give her a kiss

 

I saw your mommy and your mommy's dead

I saw her lying in a pool of read-And

she doesn't know how to swim

I think it's the greatest thing I'll ever see-What's that?

Your dead mommy lying in front of me

I'll always remember her lying dead on the floor

I hope she dies twenty times more

 

I saw your mommy and your mommy is dead

I saw your mommy and your mommy is dead

I saw her, I saw her...mommy

I saw your mommy

She went away for the holidays

Said she's going to L.A.

But she never got there

She never got there

She never got there, they say

 

The KKK took my baby away

They took her away

Away from me

The KKK took my baby away

They took her away

Away from me

 

Now I don't know

Where my baby can be

They took her from me

They took her from me

I don't know

Where my baby can be

They took her from me

They took her from me

 

Ring me, ring me ring me

Up the President

And find out

Where my baby went

Ring me, ring me, ring me

Up the FBI

And find out if

My baby's alive

Yeah, yeah, yeah

 

o o o o o o

o o o o o o

The iceman's mule

is parked outside of the bar

Where a man with missing fingers

Plays a strange guitar

And the german dwarf

Dances with the butcher's son

And a little rain never hurt no one

And a little rain never hurt no one

 

They're dancing on the roof

And the ceiling's coming down

I sleep with my shovel and my leather gloves

And a little trouble makes it worth the going

And a little rain never hurt no one

 

Oh the world is round

And I'll go around

You must risk something that matters

My hands are strong

I'll take any man here

If it's worth the going

It's worth the ride

 

She was 15 years old

And she'd never seen the ocean

She climbed into a van

With a vagabond

And the last thing she said

Was, I love you mom.

 

And a little rain

Never hurt no one

And a little rain

Never hurt no one

When there weren't any parties,

she'd park by the quarry,

walk into the woods,

until she came to a clearing,

where townies would gather,

and drink until blackout,

smoke cigs until sick,

pack bowls and then pass out,

windows wide open to let the hard rock in,

this was the rage it didn't need much convincing,

the girls gave her glares, but the boys were quite pleasant,

to be totally honest, they didn't seem much different.

 

when there weren't any parties, some time she'd party with townies.

 

out on the parkways, after the parties,

it was always arousing when they'd rev up their engines,

it's hard to describe, so she kept it a secret,

the girls that she lived with, they knew nothing about it,

that night of the fight, and the butterfly knife,

was the first night she spent, with that one guy that she liked,

she gave him a ride to some kid's house in cleveland,

he stayed there for two weeks, the cops finally found him.

he didn't seem that different, except for that blood on his jacket.

he didn't seem that different, except for maybe his haircut.

he didn't seem much different.

they didn't seem that different, up until this one little incident.

they didn't seem much different.

now the cops want to question everyone present,

they parade every townie in town to the station,

but no one says nothing,

and they can't find the weapon,

the girl takes the stand and swears she was with him,

her father's lawyer does most of the talking.

 

she's sick of the questions, sick of the concept,

of justice and fairness,

who the hell who cares who gets caught in the middle,

she smokes and she ponders this riddle,

 

when one townie falls in the forest, can anyone hear it?

when one townie falls...

when one townie falls in the forest does anyone notice?

 

one drop of blood on immaculate(something)

mom don't know where her girl is,

sophomore accomplice in a turtleneck sweater,

dad do you know where your kids are,

sniffing at crystal in cute little cars,

getting nailed against dumpsters behind townie bars,

it's a cute little town with streets and cafes,

the fronts all seem nice, she was getting good grades,

but when she came home for Christmas,

she just seemed distant and different.

what a perfect song for the TG. . .

 

Talk, its only talk

Arguments, agreements, advice, answers,

Articulate announcements

Its only talk

 

Talk, its only talk

Babble, burble, banter, bicker bicker bicker

Brouhaha, boulderdash, ballyhoo

Its only talk

Back talk

 

Talk talk talk, its only talk

Comments, cliches, commentary, controversy

Chatter, chit-chat, chit-chat, chit-chat,

Conversation, contradiction, criticism

Its only talk

Cheap talk

 

Talk, talk, its only talk

Debates, discussions

These are words with a d this time

Dialogue, dualogue, diatribe,

Dissention, declamation

Double talk, double talk

 

Talk, talk, its all talk

Too much talk

Small talk

Talk that trash

Expressions, editorials, expugnations, exclamations, enfadulations

Its all talk

Elephant talk, elephant talk, elephant talk
