Staged Names

Wandering out the door like a man

Without any reason

Survey the lawn

See a patch that needs more water

It looks like a dead one

Start to dig down underneath

That dead patch of grass

You hit something hard

Feels like the grave has been emptied

The sprinklers are panning

Kneel to the ground

Feel down for the head

You hear a bone crush

Your hand is gone

Candyman is gone again

It looks like you missed him

Playing a tune

You penned before your death

Your death release date

Hear him singing

You were dead

For a while

Now you're born again

Like a certain Lady Luck

Coming out of a cave

I go out every night

I go all alone

If I hear your singing voice

I will take him home

When you have the man

That you were caught down in your basement

Chain him up

Make him sing all your old songs

Just so you can axe them

Hear him singing

Jingle bread and dollar songs

And you crush them under your

Little broken thumb

And your name will be a new one
