Billy Boy On Poison - 4 Leaf Clover lyrics

Father stumbles through the door, he's late again He says he needs his space and a drink Mother's in the kitchen, washing everything and nothing As she stares into the sink Sister's in the bathroom, k**ing spiders Dreaming up new ways to fool her new shrink And I am watching television, nothing's on But it's great when you don't want to think Please wake me up when it's all over, yeah Tearing apart a four leaf clover Every night that I lay down my head I try to sleep, but I just stare into the black Forgotten golden trophies upon my shelf from long ago Sometimes they take me back Way back to a time when lawns were mowed And every window seemed to shine, instead of crack It's so hard for lost wolves to find their way back home Once separated from their pack Please wake me up when the party's over Tearing apart a four leaf clover Oh, yeah, yeah When I look back so far from now At the happiness I never found And all those days play on and on, oh Father stumbles through the door, he's late again He says he needs his space and a drink Mother's in the kitchen washing everything and nothing As she cries into the sink Please wake me up when the party's over, yeah Tearing apart a four leaf clover Please wake me up when it's all over, yeah Tearing apart a four leaf clover
