track 4

He stole my clothes while I was swimming

and drained the lake when I did a dive

at teatime he served me an empty cup

and said baby I’ve done eveything for you

I have forgiven mother who saw the shape of jesus

I have forgiven father he didn't believe in god

She caught my trust while I was crying

And poisoned the cat to get it again

at noon she lost me in desert sand

and said baby it's all up to you now

I have forgiven mother who saw the shape of jesus

I have forgiven father he didn't believe in god

I don't want a happy ending

I’ve just come, to end a trail of crime

He took my voice when I was talking

and then asked for the news of today

at sundown he needed my help and care

then said baby now we’re done

we're done that was all

I have forgiven mother who saw the shape of jesus

I have forgiven father he didn't believe in god

No happy ending

No end of crime

It’s the death of two wastes of a good mans time
