Everyone's Dying (Grandma's Drunk Again) Songtext
von Roe Kapara

Grandma′s drunk again, passed out in her soup
The rats are singin', there′s asbestos in the roof
Mr. Perkins in the front yard with his gun
The kids are cryin' as he points it at the sun

I smell pollen where the grass still lives
Standin' on the mezzanine, chokin′ on my spit
I still wonder why they live like this
It seems like everyone′s dyin'


She killed her husband ′cause he loved her like a whore
They say the flowers grew the day she dumped the corpse
She drowns herself inside her Tylenol and pills
Says she could've been an actress in a film

But I smell pollen where the grass still lives
Standin′ on the mezzanine, chokin' on my spit
I still wonder why they live like this
It seems like everyone′s dyin'

This town is dyin'
Why are they like this?
God, kids are lyin′
They′ll try to hide it

They're setting fires to the churches tonight
The shadows dance on the wall
Waitin′ for the answers to their calls
