Buried In The Backyard

by The Blow Monkeys

Lyrics
Well he muddied the water so that he may appear deep
Yes he muddied the water so that he may appear deep
You get blinded by the pain that you keep
The pain that you keep
Well there ain't no learning from those memories you see
No there ain't no learning from those memories you see
Buried in the backyard, covered by leaves
Covered by leaves

And for a second there I lost all sense of time
For a second there you know I lost all sense of time
Up on the edge with nowhere left to climb
Nowhere left to climb

So he put on his robes and he walked upon the mountain to rail
Yes he put on his robes and he walked upon the mountain to rail
Knowing for sure he was bound to fail
Bound to fail

So he sailed down the river just like his good book said
Yes he sailed down the river, down the river like his good book said
All the way down to the ocean bed
To the ocean bed

Buried in the backyard
Buried in the backyard
Buried in the backyard
Buried in the backyard
Buried in the backyard
Buried in the backyard
