i went to your street at seven in the mornin' and while you were asleep i read your newspaper i saw you out walkin' out walkin' with your father pretendin' not to see me pretendin' to be a family i know you tried, baby i know you tried i know you tried to go on saw a metal object lyin' in the street
and when we turned away it stood itself up you circled the island in a chevy caprice you stuck out your tongue and your nose began to bleed i know you tried, baby i know you tried i know you tried to go on i know you tried, baby i know you tried i know you tried to go on
