Evil Lyrics - Swimmin' Time - Shovels & Rope

Standing in line at the equestrian mart, looks like it's about to rain 

I've got two small kids and I'm late on the rent, wife's dead two weeks to the day 

Dead two weeks to the, two weeks to the day 

The sun came out but it was cold as hell, my fingers were as numb as my mind 

When my quarter horse 'red' kicked me in the head, while I was shoeing him up from behind 

Shoeing him up, shoeing him up from behind 

But every now and then I get evil 

I'm ashamed in the shadow of the steeple 

I'm a lunatic looking thru a keyhole 

I hit my kids but I don't mean to 

I'm a dead dog lying on the sidewalk 

Another victim of the mortgage bubble pop 

Waiting for the other shoe to drop, ah 

Melanie lives at the house next down, she's got a head full of auburn curls 

I seen her standing in the mud with her baseball glove, spitting at the other girls 

Spitting at the, spitting at the other girls 

Now here she comes in the afternoon with some apples and a pack of reds 

She bathes my babies then she reads me to sleep, nothing much ever gets said 

Nothing much ever gets, nothing much ever gets said 

But every now and then I get evil 

I'm ashamed in the shadow of the steeple 

I'm a lunatic looking thru a keyhole 

I hit my kids but I don't mean to 

I'm a dead dog lying on the sidewalk 

Another victim of the mortgage bubble pop 

Waiting on the other shoe to drop 

Cops show up with their lights turned off, judge Jonny from across the street 

Had some calls light night 'bout something didn't look right 

Grab your things you better come with me 

Accusations in a room with a neon light, she said don't you pay us no mind 

All we ever shared was a loneliness, he and I was two of a kind 

He and I was two of, was two of a kind 

But every now and then I get evil 

I'm ashamed in the shadow of the steeple 

I'm a lunatic looking thru a keyhole 

I hit my kids but I don't mean to 

I'm a dead dog lying on the sidewalk 

Another victim of the mortgage bubble pop 

Waiting on the other shoe to drop
