A REAR VIEW MIRROR

 

There's a window by a courtyard by a house

It's six hundred and thirty five pieces give or take

It's seen five families pass by

Now it can't reflect of the sky as the night time goes by

 

There's a bible by the window by the courtyard but now it's just ash

By the bible's a safe holding letters, it never held cash

By the safe is a little girl's doll

And the bones of a dog on the prowl

It likes next to the doll

Oo oh

 

There's a football by the doll it's deflated and caked to the earth

Over top of the house is a freeway, a modern world birth

Now last time the house just collapsed

It's usefulness gone now perhaps

Now it's muddy bike tracks

Oo oh
