Lyrics

0:19Well here lie the remains
0:21Of every girl I've loved
0:23The princesses of heaven and hell
0:26Who thought they knew me well
0:28There goes my wishbone
0:30It calms my crooked friend
0:33Screaming he knew I was dead
0:35True right down to the end
0:38I was in a fury with a judge and with a jury
0:40You could tell I was a wicked man
0:42Well there was no one on the wall
0:43But the stupid and the small
0:44But they always do the best they can
0:56Well here lies mother Brown
0:58She always looked so young
1:01I was never too easy to please
1:03Always on my knees
1:05Well there goes my last hope
1:08Here comes my bullet train
1:10Shooting the hole in my head
1:12On the wrong right side of my brain
1:15I was getting ready
1:16I was shaking I was steady
1:17I was pleading to be left alive
1:18Well I was digging for the gold
1:20Just waiting to be told
1:21That my cheating heart would survive
1:24I was in a fury with a judge and with a jury
1:26You could tell I was a wicked man
1:29Well there was no one on the wall
1:30But the stupid and the small
1:31But they always do the best they can
2:02Well here lie the remains of saving lady death
2:05Her old man streamed up in a hole
2:08Another uneven soul
2:10There goes my last wish
2:13Here comes my audience
2:15Pitchforks pointing my way
2:18And it's no coincidence
2:23I was in a bind of the body and the mind
2:24And my mother was the last to know
2:27When I told her I was runnin'
2:28I was better off a'gone
2:29And she never even said no no no no no
2:32I was never thick but the fall wouldn't click
2:33So I never had the best excuse
2:36You couldn't say that I was best
2:37So they put me to the test
2:38With a never ending soul abuse
2:41I was in a fury with a judge and with a jury
2:43You could tell I was a wicked man
2:45Well there was no one on the wall
2:47But the stupid and the small
2:48But they always do the best they can
2:50I was getting ready
2:51I was shaking I was steady
2:53I was pleading to be left alive
2:55Well I was digging for the gold
2:56Just waiting to be told
2:57That my cheating heart would survive
Well here lie the remains
Of every girl I've loved
The princesses of heaven and hell
Who thought they knew me well
There goes my wishbone
It calms my crooked friend
Screaming he knew I was dead
True right down to the end
I was in a fury with a judge and with a jury
You could tell I was a wicked man
Well there was no one on the wall
But the stupid and the small
But they always do the best they can
Well here lies mother Brown
She always looked so young
I was never too easy to please
Always on my knees
Well there goes my last hope
Here comes my bullet train
Shooting the hole in my head
On the wrong right side of my brain
I was getting ready
I was shaking  I was steady
I was pleading to be left alive
Well I was digging for the gold
Just waiting to be told
That my cheating heart would survive
I was in a fury with a judge and with a jury
You could tell I was a wicked man
Well there was no one on the wall
But the stupid and the small
But they always do the best they can
Well here lie the remains of saving lady death
Her old man streamed up in a hole
Another uneven soul
There goes my last wish
Here comes my audience
Pitchforks pointing my way
And it's no coincidence
I was in a bind of the body and the mind
And my mother was the last to know
When I told her I was runnin'
I was better off a'gone
And she never even said no  no  no  no  no
I was never thick but the fall wouldn't click
So I never had the best excuse
You couldn't say that I was best
So they put me to the test
With a never ending soul abuse
I was in a fury with a judge and with a jury
You could tell I was a wicked man
Well there was no one on the wall
But the stupid and the small
But they always do the best they can
I was getting ready
I was shaking  I was steady
I was pleading to be left alive
Well I was digging for the gold
Just waiting to be told
That my cheating heart would survive
