We found a house with a big yard
And moved all of my things
And most of your things in
And honey I was proud of it, honey I was proud of you
You quote the Good Book when its convenient
But you dont have the sense
No, you dont have the sense to tie your tangled tongue
Instead youre slashing through the mud
Some boxes, that hand-me-down couch and chair
That used to be at your church, we borrowed them from there
A cabinet record player with nothing but James Taylor
Two carpets from the corner store cover the hardwood floor
Id be a fool to ask for more
You quote the Good Book when its convenient
But you dont have the sense
No you dont have the sense to tie your tangled tongue
Instead youre slashing through the mud
You quote the Good Book when its convenient
But you dont have the sense
No you dont have the sense to tie your tangled tongue
Instead youre slashing through the mud
The love you had was good enough
The path that we were stuck between
But so much stuff must go tonight
Oh Lord, what have I done?
You quote the Good Book when its convenient
But you dont have the sense
No you dont have the sense to tie your tangled tongue
Instead youre slashing through the mud
