Lyrics Laura Veirs

Laura Veirs

Look Out The Window

My grandma she painted white gold pictures

And my grandpa he went insane

And my grandpa he frittered his money away

And my grandma she looked like a movie star

And if I spend my whole life

Looking down at the flaws in the dirt

And the cracks in the wood

And the ants crawling under the door

Look out the window

Squeeze through the bars in your head

And stop acting so dead

My grandma they called her a mealy mouth cause she talked too loud

And my grandpa he organized people on their Ohio farms

And my grandpa he had working man's arms

And my grandma she smoked a pack a day to end her suffering

Look out the window

Squeeze through the bars in your head

And stop acting so dead
