"Death at One's Elbow"
Oh Glenn, don't come to the house tonight
Oh Glenn, oh Glenn, don't come to the house tonight
Oh Glenn, because there's somebody here who really, really loves you
Oh Glenn, stay home, be bored, it's crap, I know tonight
Oh Glenn, oh Glenn, don't come to the house tonight
Oh Glenn, oh Glenn, don't come to the house tonight
Because there's somebody here who'll take a hatchet to your ear
The frustration it renders me hateful, Glenn
Don't come to the house tonight
Don't come to the house tonight
Because you'll slip on the trail of my sad remains
That's why, that's why
Goodbye my love, goodbye my love
Goodbye my love, goodbye my love
Goodbye my love, goodbye my love
