Rehab Red Water Lyrics

Red Water Lyrics

(verse 1)

When i was 12

While checkin' the mail 

I was admiring the car

of the man next door

and thinkin to myself(man)

one of these days

i'm gonna have me a house lyk that

with a big red door

and his yard was mowed 

and his grass was green

and the driveway was edged 

and all the shrubs were trimmed so perfectly

I had a crush on his wife

and I played ball with his son

I pondered how much money he made

went inside and turned the tv on...



(CHORUS)

And he was layin

in an overflowing bathtub of red water

the first and the last time he ever relaxed.

And they said he had a smile on his face

his final offer

the steam on the mirror said 'one more thing to say'



(verse 2)

I was watchin tv

having one of mom's famous rice-krispy treats

watchin tom 'n jerry

i heard a car horn beep

I ran to the window 

his wife an son were home

with bags of stuff they had got at the mall

I went in my room and got my glove and ball

i lept off the steps

asked his son could he play

and his son looked at his wife and his wife told his son

i guess itd be ok

that beautiful woman

she walked in that beautiful house

and when i realized i forgot my hat

i said 'i'll be back' and turned around.



(chorus)



(verse 3)

There was screaming 

There was crying 

There were sirens 

I thougt I was dreamin 

and the sun was shining 

It was a beautiful day 

His wife was talkin to an officer 

thru the noise I heard her say



(chorus x3)
