Oh no the kitchen is closed

If I feel it coming round I'll see it go

Oh stop worrying about it

The mortgage is paid

Yeah the money's well spent

And I will watch you

Go down to the dark place of the party

And stop there watch out

For your face to perspire

Go on telling me

That I don't need a job

Or a college degree

Throw up your caps and your gowns

Your shit out of luck

Your never leaving this town

Hang on to your family tree

They've given you everything you'll ever need

Don't take care and don't even write

You'll never see my face again after tonight

And I will watch you

Go down to the dark place of the party

And stop there watch out

For your face to perspire

And take everything that

I ever lent to your closet

I burned all your hangings around

And threw out the locket
