I wanna live in a poor house baby
Live in a poor house in the sky
I wanna live in a poor house baby
Live in a poor house when I die
And I will take my place behind the other criminals in line
I wanna live in a poor house baby
Live in a poor house in the sky
I wanna live in a poor house baby
Live in a poor house when I die
And I've been to target practice
The four winds blow over my shoulder
A dark sky will carry me over
Everything below will turn to fire
All of mother nature will burn
I wanna live in a burned out basement
Live in a basement in the sky
I wanna live in a burned out basement
Live in a basement when I die
And I've been to target practice
The four winds blow over my shoulder
A dark sky will carry me over
Everything below will turn to fire
All of mother nature will burn
And I've been to target practice
The four winds blow over my shoulder
A dark sky will carry me over
Everything below will turn to fire
All of mother nature will burn
