The Butcher's Window

The Butcher's Window

(album: St. Leonards - 2018)

Got your eyes on the rainbows in the oil on the street
'Cause they're just like the big ones, but they're under your feet
There's a fire in the chook pen, fireworks in your hand
And there's a hole in the window where the butcher shop stands

Don't say shit like that, don't be stupid
If you're not using your head I will bruise it
You can wait in the corner with soap in your mouth
'Cause you used the Lord's name in vain in my house
You can stand there in silence while it drips down your throat
And think of your mother and why she won't take you home

Put your hands out in front I'm gonna teach you again
And cut into your scars in front of all of your friends
There's an escape in the factory, a Mecano train set
You're gonna ride it the fuck out of Glenroy Tech

Don't say shit like that, don't be stupid
If you're not using your head I will bruise it
You can wait for your twenties, shake 'em all off your back
And flip through the phone book, and call up your Dad
Watch him talk like you do and say things that you've said
With nature vs nurture in the back of your head

There's a problem, you should abort it
You won't handle the stress or afford it
Well there's a diamond inside you something harder than life
And ain't it a mystery how you never died
There's a 5 o'clock shadow, a black nail on your hand
There's a hole in the window where the butcher shop stands
