lyrics

Oddities and Heirlooms

Verse:
There’s this chair that sits at home
It’s blue and black with a lattice throne.
Inspired to paint the old out,
Sanded back without a doubt
For another ass in the home.

For another ass in the home.
For all its glory,
For another ass in the home.

In the backroom of this house
Stood a tall Manikin with a tray
Holding business cards for the
Owner who no longer lived there.
It’s still there to this day.

And it’s still there to this day.
With rock hard candy.
And it’s still there to this day.

Verse:
There’s a fireplace in a cabin
Waiting to be set free with flames
Instead there stands a dresser full of knobs
From worn out ovens full of stains.

From worn out ovens full of stains.
Nothing remains, but worn out knobs
From ovens full of stains.

Verse:
Oddities and heirlooms make the cut
Thrown aside is just their luck

Make a home of memories too
For odd ducks like me and you

For odd ducks like me and you
Finding treasure in the trash
For odd ducks like me you.
