around the County Apartments in my back yard You can hide well enough turn your back on what's hard enough and pray you don't go mad Louise was a spectacle down at the Town Hall the day they took her kids away she spat and damned us all blinded the bailiff who was called and they drugged and dragged her away dragged Louise away Now I peer through the cracks in the mortar and I smile at the doped face of the minister's daughter I hear Louise in the dying of the day with her spoon shovel in the dirt, she's been digging away Louise is planning her great escape Louise is planning her great escape Louise is planning her escape She stands in a thin cotton dress that she swears was her mother's best but don't look too hard at the seams cause everyone has prideand shame enough despite their lack of luxury to dream do you dream Louise? Now I can't recall what became of the handsome man that loved her and left her on the edge of sane but she wears his suit coat like some disability around the circular grounds of the County Facility I hear Louise in the dying of the day with her spoon shovel in the dirt till they take it away Louise is planning her great escape Louise is planning her great escape Louise is planning her escape Now I pick at the cracks in the mortar and widen the whole gap towards the minister's daughter I will greet Louise in the death of the day with my hands muddied in the dirt I have been digging away I've been planning her great escape I've been planning her great escape I've been planning her escape |
