Paroles : First They Made Me Sleep in the Closet / I’m Scratchin’ Peace Symbols on Your Tombstone

Part I: First They Made Me Sleep in the Closet

First they made me sleep in the closet (Hahaha!)

First they made me sleep in the closet (Aww!)
Then they made him sleep out in the hall (Oh...)
When I got a little bit older
They made me sleep against the wall (Aww!)
Then I was so young and tender (Ooh!)
But now I’m oh, so big and hard (Uh oh)
Now that I’m a little bit older
I got’s to sleeps in the backyard

When he was just about three
All the girls would fight to see
Who could hold him on their knee
But now its plain to see
Now that he’s big and hard
He’s got to stay in the backyard
He had a job and got fired
And on the ground so hard
And I’m so sure some day
Some pretty girl will come his way
And then his mama will say
“Boy, with girls, you don’t play!”
And it’s so plain to see
What his mama wants him to be
Locked up and not to be free
To play with you or me

Now I sleep out in the graveyard (Ooh...)
Seems my mama up and died
And now I just lay around her tombstone
Scratching peace symbols in the side

Part II: I'm Scratching Peace Symbols in Your Tombstone

I’m scratching peace symbols in your tombstone
Scratching peace symbols in your mind
I’d like to know, how'd you get there?
I’d like to know, how'd you get there?
Can’t you hear, oh can’t you hear up here? As I’m
Scratching peace symbols in your tombstone
Scratching peace symbols in your mind
I’d like to know, how'd you get there?
I’d like to know, how'd you get there?

The only thing you know is what they told you
The only thing you know is what they said
And showed you by the actions
That all that was true and real was dead, but

I’m scratching peace symbols in your tombstone
Scratching peace symbols in your mind
I’d like to know, how’d you get there?
I’d like to know, I’d like to know, how’d you get there?

My mama told me, here's what she said:
"Stay away from them girls and my bed"
But the woman with the thoughts is all dead
'Cause there’s a cloud of lead in her head

I’m scratching peace symbols in your tombstone
Scratching peace symbols in your mind
