Standard (EADGBE)
When you were young you were the king of carrot flowers
and how you built a tower tumbling through the trees
In holy rattlesnakes that fell all 'round your feet
and your mom would stick a fork right into daddy's shoulder
and dad would throw the garbage all across the floor
( repeat x2)
as we would lay and learn what each other's bodies were for
and this is the room one afternoon I knew I could love you
and from above you how I sank into your soul
into that secret place where no one dares to go
and your mom would drink till she was no longer speaking
and dad would dream of all the different ways to die
( repeat x4)
each on a little more than he could dare to try
