Harper Lee

Like a crash I wait for the impact And like a train I wait for the smoke Like a storm I wait for the silence And like a bluff I wait till you fold Oooh there’s a gun in the attic let me go grab it Oooh I’d blow holes in my soul just so you can look past it Oooh ye there’s glass on the floor there’s a hole in the roof Oooh ye the chandelier fell now the rains falling through Like a dog I wait for my owner And Harper Lee I’ll kill me a bird And I sit back and I just watch it happen And just like you I won’t say a word Oooh there’s a gun in the attic, let me go grab it Oooh I’d blow holes in my soul just so you can look past it Oooh ye there’s glass on the floor, there’s a hole in the roof Oooh ye the chandelier fell, now the rain’s falling through Oooh I put mice in the kitchen to see if you’d kill them Oooh oh no you let them live now there’s twelve thousand kids Oooh oh ye you let them breed now I’ve got mouths to feed Oooh oh ye you let them stay now they have taken my place Oooh ye you left them alone now they’re eating our home
