Junkyard Lyrics
I have lived in a junkyard where the weeds eat up the rain
If you get anything there even out of place, you know there's hell to pay
And he said "you're as sick as you are lovely and in need of a hand"
He tells me "you are never worthy"
But I was just a child you see, that was my reality
He had a sick little girl, dirty and hard with a breast plate made of metal
She drives all day in her rusty Buick and her feet don't reach the pedals
Got a jar of flies, father's disguise where his heart should be
Her mouth is sewn together
She screams with those eyes (she screams with those eyes)
She screams with those eyes
And he says "She's as sick as she is lovely and in need of my hand"
Yeah, he uses his hands
He tells her "You are never worthy"
She was all alone you see
That was her reality
Well I should have been sleeping, should have been dreaming
But I wake up to broken glass
There'll be one more empty desk in my homeroom class
I got an old bone pocket knife tight in my right hand
To save my poor mother from the junkyard man
He's as sick as he is lovely
And in need of a hand
He will know he's not worthy
When he dies alone you see
That's his reality
I'm not sick, I am lovely
Hatred is the curse of man
And I will not feel unworthy
Because I have washed my hands you see
That's my reality
If you get anything there even out of place, you know there's hell to pay
He tells me "you are never worthy"
But I was just a child you see, that was my reality
She drives all day in her rusty Buick and her feet don't reach the pedals
Got a jar of flies, father's disguise where his heart should be
Her mouth is sewn together
She screams with those eyes (she screams with those eyes)
She screams with those eyes
Yeah, he uses his hands
He tells her "You are never worthy"
She was all alone you see
That was her reality
But I wake up to broken glass
There'll be one more empty desk in my homeroom class
I got an old bone pocket knife tight in my right hand
To save my poor mother from the junkyard man
And in need of a hand
He will know he's not worthy
When he dies alone you see
That's his reality
Hatred is the curse of man
And I will not feel unworthy
Because I have washed my hands you see
That's my reality
