Red Water
Rehab

When I was twelve, while checking the mail

I was admiring the car of the man next door

And thinking to myself, man, one of these days

I'm gonna have me a house like that with a big, red door

And his yard was mowed, and his grass was green

And the driveway was edged and all the shrubs were trimmed so perfectly

I had a crush on his wife and I played ball with his son

I pondered how much money he made, went inside and turned the tv on


[Hook:]

And he was laying in an overflowing bathtub of red water

The first and the last time he ever relaxed

And they said, he had a smile on his face

His final offer, the steam on the mirror said

One more thing to say


I was watching tv, having one of mom's famous rice crispy treats

Watching Tom and Jerry, I heard a car horn beep

I ran to the window, his wife and son were home

With bags of stuff they had got at the mall

I went in my room and got my glove and ball

I leapt off the stairs, and asked his son could he play

And his son looked at his wife and his wife told his son I guess it'll be okay

And that beautiful woman, she walked in that beautiful house

When I realized I forgot my hat, I said I'll be back and turned around

And he was laying in an overflowing bathtub of red water

The first and the last time he ever relaxed

And they said, he had a smile on his face

His final offer, the steam on the mirror said

One more thing to say

There was screaming and there was crying

There was sirens, I thought I was dreamin

And the sun was shining, it was a beautiful day

His wife was talking to an officer

Through the noise I heard her say


[Hook:]

And he was laying in an overflowing bathtub of red water

The first and the last time he ever relaxed

And they said, he had a smile on his face

His final offer, the steam on the mirror said

I got one more thing to say
