Uncle Bob (Demo)

Grab a wife
And get a job
There's no time left for Uncle Bob
He's read all the papers and started to doze
Start looking for something to put up his nose

Dreaming with the lights left on
Knee-deep in a little fun
She says he'll never be the one lying on the leather alone

You lost your knife
You lost your gun
Let it go
No obsession
Grief comes in phases and then it goes
Tomorrow's another day and maybe, who knows?

Dreaming with the lights left on
Knee-deep in a little fun
She says you'll never be the one lying on the leather alone

Either you sink or maybe you drown
You fired your shrink, he was way too downtown
Water is rising over your head
You live like you've wasted, then you're dead
Then you're dead

And then last Sunday
The phone rang twice
A shaky receiver and the voice was tight
She said: "You better get down here. Daddy is dead
Facedown in his couch, no one there to lift his head."

Dreaming with the lights left on
Knee-deep in a little fun
She says you'll never be the one lying on the leather alone
