Susans House Lyrics

    Going over to susan's house, walking south down baxter street
    -nothing hiding behind this picket fence
    There's a crazy old woman smashing bottles on the sidewalk
    Where her house burnt down two years ago
    People say that back then she really wasn't that crazy

    Going over to susan's house
    Going over to susan's house
    I can't be alone tonight

    Down by the donut prince a fifteen year old boy lies on the sidewalk
    With a bullet in his forehead
    In a final act of indignity the paramedics take off all his clothes
    For the whole world to see while they put him in the bag
    Meanwhile and old couple argues inside the queen bee
    The sick fluorescent light shimmering on their skin

    Going over to susan's house
    Going over to susan's house
    She's gonna make it right

    Take a left down echo park, a kid asks do i want some crack
    T.v. sets are spewing baywatch through the windows into black
    Here comes a girl with long brown hair who can't be more than seventeen
    She sucks on a red popsicle while she pushes a baby girl in a pink carriage
    And i'm thinking that must be her sister
    That must be her sister, right?
    They go into the 7-11 and i keep walking

    Going over to susan's house (repeat)
