Billy Boy On Poison - Four Leaf Clover lyrics

rate me

Father stumbles through the door

he's late again, 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 killing spiders dreaming up new ways to fool

her new shrink,

and I am watching television, nothings's on but it's great

when you don't want to think

Please wake me up when it's all over

Tearing apart a four leaf clover

Every night 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

when separated from their pack

Please wake me up when it's all over

Tearing apart a four leaf clover

Please wake me up when the party's over, yeah

tearing apart a four leaf clover

Aw, yeah, yeah

When I look back so far from now

The happiness I never found

and all those days play on and on, on

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

Tearing apart a four leaf clover
