16th Ward Songtext
von Bent Denim

Woke up in a ranch house
Only remember turning off the lights
Whispering about stage fright
Blond hair and black lace

Checkerboard linoleum under my feet
Bent over the kitchen sink closing my eyes
This was a daydream of businessmen alike
A stable family life, TV dinners and a hot wife


Lived by a graveyard
Back in the sixteenth ward
We were having a good day
Our neighbors buried themselves in our front yard

They named their dog Dixie
Flinched when she barked at me
When we used the back door
Lock it, we′ve been robbed before

I'm stealing your cable
And using your wifi
Stole some bank statements
Left town, started a new life
