HE WAKES UP
IN THE MORNIN'
DOES HIS TEETH
BITE TO EAT
AND HE'S ROLLIN'
AND NEVER
CHANGES A THING
THE WEEK ENDS
THE WEEK BEGINS
SHE THINKS
WE LOOK AT
EACH OTHER
WONDERING WHAT
THE OTHER IS THINKING
BUT WE NEVER
SAY A THING
AND THESE CRIMES
BETWEEN US
GROW DEEPER
TAKE THESE CHANCES
PLACE THEM IN A BOX
UNTIL A QUIETER TIME
LIGHTS DOWN
YOU UP AND DIE
GOES TO VISIT
HIS MOMMY
SHE FEEDS HIM WELL
HIS CONCERNS
HE FORGETS THEM
AND REMEMBERS
BEING SMALL
PLAYING UNDER THE
TABLE AND DREAMING
TAKE THESE CHANCES
PLACE THEM IN A BOX
UNTIL A QUIETER TIME
LIGHTS DOWN
YOU UP AND DIE
DRIVING ALONG
THIS HIGHWAY
ALL THESE CARS END UP
ON THE SIDEWALK
PEOPLE IN EVERY
DIRECTION
NO WORDS EXCHANGED
NO TIME TO
EXCHANGE WHEN
ALL THE LITTLE ANTS
ARE MARCHING
RED AND BLACK
ANTENNAE WAVING
THEY ALL DO IT THE SAME
THEY ALL DO IT
THE SAME WAY
CANDYMAN TEMPTING
THE THOUGHTS
OF A SWEET TOOTH
TORTURED BY
WEIGHT LOSS
PROGRAM CUTTING
THE CORNERS
LOOSE END
LOOSE END CUT CUT
ON THE FENCE
TRY NOT TO OFFEND
CUT CUT CUT CUT
TAKE THESE CHANCES
PLACE THEM IN A BOX
UNTIL A QUIETER TIME
LIGHTS DOWN
YOU UP AND DIE
LIGHTS DOWN
YOU UP AND DIE
