Second track from the collaboration between The Bargain Basement Butterflies and Nic.
This is a triphop kinda song with storytelling lyrics from TBBB.
Mr. McCarthy has a mannequin that sits
In his second story window.
Mr. McCarthy hasn’t been home at all,
for at least a month or so.
Why would he leave
and just leave her sitting there
in that second story window
It seams odd that he should care
so very, very little
As I walk by and I look up
At that second story window
She’s dressed in red she’s got long black hair
She looks as if she longs to know
What is out there in the world to see?
Just what could she be?
If she could just walk away remove herself
From the second story window.
As I pass by I say hello
to that second story window
Sometimes I sing and sometimes we laugh
to help ease her sorrows.
Each night at 8
As I pass by I tell her how my day was
She tells me about hers and it’s always the same
always unpleasantness
We’ve hatched a plan
Tomorrow night at 6PM
I will meet her then
And take her out of this place
Take her from here
Far away
Anywhere but here
Mr. McCarty came home today
With the whole thing on display
I ought to give him a peace of my mind
A plans is a plan, so we stick to the plan
And nothing gets in our way now
We will have to be cautious but it stays the same
I’m going to save you from this place
So I ran over down below
That second story window
But to my surprise she was not there
It was Mr. McCarthy instead
My love What has he done?
What has he done?
My love, where are you now?
My love, my love
Where are you now?
