His father was a drinker
And his mother cried in bed

Folding John Wayne's t-shirts
When the swingset hit his head

The neighbors they adored him
For his humor and his conversation

Look underneath the (1)__________ there
Find the few (2)____________ things
Rotting fast, in their sleep

Even more, they were boys
With their cars, summer jobs
Oh my God...

He dressed up like a clown for them
With his face paint white and red

And on his best behavior
In a dark room on the bed
He kissed them all
He'd kill ten thousand people
With a sleight of his hand
Running far, (3)______________ fast to the dead
He took off all their clothes for them
He put a cloth on their lips
Quiet hands, quiet kiss on the mouth...

And in my (4)________ behavior
I am really (5)________ (6)________ him

Look beneath the (7)__________ boards
For the (8)______________ I have hid
