Caretaker Songtext
von Laura Stevenson and The Cans
Caretaker Songtext
I wake up,
Feed your cat,
And tell myself that I′m okay where I'm at
And I take great care keeping this roof pitched
But it′s lonely out here,
I can't make any music
Understand I can no longer take care
This is the last night in the house I was born in
Could you give me a ride to the train in the morning?
I've got a real nice place on a real nice block
With a garden outside, You should see it sometime
But don′t, don′t worry about
This is the last night in the house I was born in
Don't tell me that I have forgotten who I am
I′m gonna write, write,
Write until it comes out wrong
And then I'll hang up my hands on the hook when I′m done
And I know that you always wanted me to
And I tell myself the things you said
You said just because you had to
Feed your cat,
And tell myself that I′m okay where I'm at
And I take great care keeping this roof pitched
But it′s lonely out here,
I can't make any music
Understand I can no longer take care
This is the last night in the house I was born in
Could you give me a ride to the train in the morning?
I've got a real nice place on a real nice block
With a garden outside, You should see it sometime
But don′t, don′t worry about
This is the last night in the house I was born in
Don't tell me that I have forgotten who I am
I′m gonna write, write,
Write until it comes out wrong
And then I'll hang up my hands on the hook when I′m done
And I know that you always wanted me to
And I tell myself the things you said
You said just because you had to
