lyrics

Buried in the corner of the yard
Only if you listen very hard
I’m always gonna lose
So you’re always gonna lose
In the yard of a house
full of dumb little mouths
singing the same old song

Whether the amount is negligible
Whether the addiction is tamed
I spilt my ink and I've got nothing left to drink
so I let me a pint, to make a fine point
To open up my bloody mind again

Oh words are fire in the right room,
Depend on me for nothing

Gold in the eye of a jaguar
the King gets his iron from Mars
His copper from Venus the Devil has seen us
Milling about, wrestling with doubt
In the backyard of a burning house

Oh words are fire in the right room,
Depend on me for nothing

Why'd you have to bury that toy?
Why do I have to destroy?
The tea tree casts my mind to the past
but I don't think of you, not anymore
Never any more at all.
