It's Still Happening

I was screaming in my head or mouthing help me help me Repeatedly... All those people hanging out While looking over my shoulder at the older, taller man saying ,no,no,no,.! All those people hanging out In a place I did not recognize He was filling up a clear plastic box with colored candy, colored nuts... All sold by the weight.? Here's where it all begins I guess I?m stayin' here tonight So shut the door and shut off the light I guess I?m stayin' here tonight It?s been a long time My first painting in class I'll be late He took one to finish it, painting white on the background I got upset So don't stay up and wait The painting didn't end up in the show, he told me later It was because the teacher said it wasn't good at all We were pretending this in the lobby earlier.. But I don't play bass! I?ll come back here to you As my grandmother pointed out 4 crocodiles (or maybe they were alligators) I guess I?m stayin? here tonight So shut the door and shut off the light I guess I?m stayin' here tonight It?s been a long time All those people hanging out So I?ll be late Don?t stay up and wait I guess I'm stayin' here tonight So shut the door and shut off the light I never made it home last night It's been a long time It's been a long time It's been a long time
