lyrics

Mother and father woke up together. Boiled some water, and checked on the weather. Mom felt sick and sad but now shes feeling better. She buried her firstborn in her grandmas sweater becuase father had a shotgun aimed at the stork, carrying a child which equals extra work. Mom ran away but no one would put her up. She came back the same day, I guess she had enough.

She was baptized in the bathtub because the river disappeared. She hit her head on the faucet and was out for twenty years. When she finally came too she discovered she was a wife, sitting lonely in her home, in the silence of the night. He said "I can't afford another. I'll be workin til my death. You're breakin my bones and you're trying to take my breath. If you assume whats gonna be, you make an ass out of you and me. You opened your can of worms, now sit down to eat."

If you're looking for someone to blame, point your fingers at the sky: the cause of our creation knows the answer why. Once he tells you the reason, theres no way you can turn around. Then you experience every season in the safety of the ground.

No one has won. No one has ever won.
