in a backyard on these
With a sickness on these
car lawns (??)and lawn mowers
changing cares  (??) and gun shots on these
face down
in a sick room
its full of poison and an antidote to fill him
with chemical beds and television sets
flowers at the bedside 
to cure him

that's a hopeless man with the arms of an artery(???)
there is medicine in her hands to come home

toss and turn 
toss and turn
toss and turn
toss and turn
toss and turn

all the things and the curse move him down
bathed (??)here its day time and his nights are forgotten
time wall and man ties(???) in the halls of his new home
fashioned from the remnants of an old school

face down
he's down
so down 
low down
that's  so down with a chance
one chance
last chance one chance
reach for the typhoid 
fine 
untied 
hands tied inside
tell all the people that he's fine 
so fine 
he's fine 
so fine
hes been thrown to the ground 
one down 
he's down
 so down
short out 
short out 
short out 
short out

(whispered)

he's down so down
he's down so down
one chance last chance
one chance last chance
he's down so down
he's down so down
one chance last chance
one chance last chance
