The Taxpayers - Everybody Just Stood There lyrics
[The Taxpayers - Everybody Just Stood There lyrics]
While the man in the street was screaming
For help from the people nearby
The kid next to him shook violently
And everybody just stood there
While the woman in rags looked to
The heavens with her arms out
The other prayed for a god to deliver them
And everybody just stood there
On the floor, in a house covered in rain
From the inside out: Floorboards creaking
Front door shaking the radio blaring and all
The glasses breaking
You can run to the car, drive away
From the scene, put the television on
And try to forget everything
But there's a skeleton waiting in the
Basement, banging on the bedposts
Beggin' for his medicine
Everybody just stood there
For help from the people nearby
The kid next to him shook violently
And everybody just stood there
While the woman in rags looked to
The heavens with her arms out
The other prayed for a god to deliver them
And everybody just stood there
On the floor, in a house covered in rain
From the inside out: Floorboards creaking
Front door shaking the radio blaring and all
The glasses breaking
You can run to the car, drive away
From the scene, put the television on
And try to forget everything
But there's a skeleton waiting in the
Basement, banging on the bedposts
Beggin' for his medicine
Everybody just stood there
