Leave the bright blue door on the white-washed floor.Leave the death ledger under city hall.Leave the joyful air in that rubber ball today.Just leave the lilac print on the linen sheet.Leave the bird you killed at your father's feet.Let the sideways rain in the crooked street remain.Leave whimpering dog in his cold kennel.Leave the dead starlet on her pedestal.Leave the acid kids in their green fishbowls today.Leave the sad guitar in its hard-shell case.Leave the worried look on your lover's face.Let the orange embers in the fireplace remain.Cause everything must belong somewhere.The train off in the distance, bicycle chained to the stairs.Everything must belong somewhere.I know that now, that's why I'm staying here.Leave the ocean's roar in the turquoise shell.Leave the widower in his private hell.Leave the liberty in that broken bell today.Leave the epic poem on its yellowed page.Leave the grey macaw in his covered cage.Let the traveling band on the interstate remain.Cause everything must belong somewhere.Sound-stage in California, televisions in Times Square.Everything must belong somewhere.I know that now, that's why I'm staying here.Yeah I know that now that's why I'm staying here.Leave the secret talk on the trundle bed.Leave the garden tools in the rusted shed.Leave those bad ideas in your troubled head today.Leave the restless ghost in his old hotel.Leave the homeless man in his cardboard cell.Let the painted horse on the carousel remain.Cause everything must belong somewhere.Just like the gold around your finger and the silver in his hair.Yeah, everything must belong somewhere.I know that now, that's why I'm staying here.I know that now, that's why I'm staying here.In truth, the forest hears each soundEach blade of grass as it lies down.The world requires no audience.no witnesses, no witnesses.Leave the old town drunk on his wooden stool.Leave the autumn leaves in the swimming pool.Leave the poor black child in his crumbling school today.Leave novelist in his daydream tune.Leave the scientist in her rubik's cube.Let true genius in the padded room remain.Leave horses hair on the slanted bow.Leave the slot machines on the riverboat.Leave the cauliflower in the casserole today.Leave the hot white-trash in their shopping malls.Leave the hawks of war in their capitals.Let the organs moan in the cathedral remain.Cause everything must belong somewhere.You lock the devil in the basement, God up into the air.Yeah, everything must belong somewhere.I know it's true, I wish you'd leave me here.I know it's true, why don't you leave me here?
