Kitchen - Hallway

Well I've been stuck inside this house too long

Well my parents used to catch me sneakin out when I was young

From the kitchen to the hallway where I used to sing my songs

When they were gone

But now I've seen so many things since then

I've seen enemies turn to lovers and then just become good friends

I've caught up with some old loved ones

And then I've just lost touch again

Hey how you been?

I been travelin, rock and rollin

How you been?

I been workin, havin children

Well all this chasin after sunsets, all this shootin at the moon

Got us drinkin from the gutter pickin food out of the broom

Well it ain't hard to second guess yourself

When you're dressin up a wound

Ain't that the truth

That's the truth

Well Suzie's dressed up in her go-out shoes

She takes a walk down by the water every time there's a full moon

She's broken every heart in town

If you haven't seen her moves you'll see em soon, yep

Oh but I don't mess with her much anyhow

Yeah, cuz girls like that were born to build you up and bring you down

And besides, all of those old worries just don't bother me much now

Cuz I got new ones

Tried and true ones

Bills past due ones

Interest accrue ones

Hole in my shoe ones

Well all this schluppin down the highway, all these wasted afternoons

Got us askin lotta questions, hope to get an answer soon

Do you try to sing to hard? just try singin out of tune, that's what I do

That's what I do

So now there's grass, cocaine, alcohol, and pills

Yeah they might even drag you under or help supplement your bills

It just depends what you need worse, be it the money or the thrills

Well, I could use both

Cuz it's been taxi fair, port, bus, and trains

These days I can't much tell the difference

They all start to feel the same

Just close my eyes and rest my head right up agains the window pane

Like a picture frame

Like a self portrait

So rainy on my folks

I think we're comin in on fumes

All this heavy cargo has just kept at the ____

Just tell the kitchen, tell the hallway, tell all the other rooms

I see ya soon

They'll see ya soon

I'll see ya soon

I'll see ya soon

(Stop, now stop)
