Lyrics

(Verse 1)
When I was 12
While checkin' the mail
I was admiring the car
Of the man next door
And thinkin to myself(man)
One of these days
I'm gonna have me a house lyk that
With a big red door
And his yard was mowed
And his grass was green
And the driveway was edged
And all the shrubs were trimmed so perfectly
I had a crush on his wife
And I played ball with his son
I pondered how much money he made
Went inside and turned the tv on..

(Chorus)
And he was layin
In an overflowing bathtub of red water
The first and the last time he ever relaxed
And they said he had a smile on his face
His final offer
The steam on the mirror said 'one more thing to say'

(Verse 2)
I was watchin tv
Having one of mom's famous rice-krispy treats
Watchin tom 'n jerry
I heard a car horn beep
I ran to the window
His wife an son were home
With bags of stuff they had got at the mall
I went in my room and got my glove and ball
I lept off the steps
Asked his son could he play
And his son looked at his wife and his wife told his son
I guess itd be ok
That beautiful woman
She walked in that beautiful house
And when I realized I forgot my hat
I said 'I'll be back' and turned around

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
There was screaming
There was crying
There were sirens
I thougt I was dreamin
And the sun was shining
It was a beautiful day
His wife was talkin to an officer
Thru the noise I heard her say

(Chorus x3)
