lyrics

Tuesday night with idle hands a scavenger in open land
Flashing lights with big ol eyes, sparkling hands while sirens cry
Begins a dance I did not want a haunting voice that slowly taunts
I cannot see but I can sense, alone I stand without defense

Well my momma
She told me Boiiiiii
Don't you ever tell those lies now (x2)

I said momma
Don't you worry you see
I'll never be the one, I'll never be the one
Tellin' those lies now

A chance to offer up my sins, Quasimodo peering in
Telling tales that never end, stop to think and live again
Twisted fate and funny fears, even cold dreams leave me here
Out of luck and out of time, my friends made bail but i'm still inside

The phone rang
My momma answered it was the sheriff
He said mrs., are you sitting down?
I've caught your son, I caught your son
And he was telling those lies now

Sheriff, it couldn't be you see
I told my son, not to be the one, not to be the one
Tellin' those lies now (x2)

MOMMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
