Lyrics The Butcher's Window - Slowly Slowly

The Butcher's Window

Got your eyes on rainbows
In the oil on the street
Cause there just like the big ones
But they’re under your feet
There’s a fire in the chook pen
Fireworks in your head
And there’s a hole in the window
Where the butcher shop stand
Don’t say shit like that, don’t be stupid
If you’re not using your head, I will bruise it
You can wait in the corner, with soap in your mouth
Cause you use the Lord’s name, in vain in my house
You can stand there in silence, while it drips down your throat
And think of your mother and why she won’t take you home
Put your hands out in front, I’m gonna teach you again
And cut into your scars, in front of all of your friends
And escape in the factory, I’m a come no train set
You’re gonna ride it the fuck out, of Glenroy Tech
Don’t say shit like that, don’t be stupid
If you’re not using your head, I will bruise it
You can wait for your twenties, shake em' all of your back
And flip through the phonebook, and call up your dad
Watch him talk like you do, and say things that you’ve said
But nature vs nurture, in the back of your head
There’s a problem, you should abort it
You won’t handle the stress, or afford it
Well there’s a diamond inside you, something harder than life
And ain’t it a mystery, how you never died
There’s a 5 o’clock shadow, a black nail on your hands
There’s a hole in the window
Where the butcher shop stands
