Paintin' Signs
Spent a lot of time in my house
Pretendin' I wasn't home
Bills and junk mail pilin' up by the door
Sittin' at the window in a dream
Lyin' to myself, that's for sure
See, what I was really doin', paintin' signs
Soul on strike
Sorry closed
Gone fishin'
Back next week
Under repair
Out of order
Help wanted
Dead end street
Losin' weight and losin' my mind
One day at a time, oh Lord
In the mirror, face growin' thinner
Foolin' myself but no one else
Peepin' through life's blinds, skippin' dinner
What I was really doin', paintin' signs
Soul on strike
Sorry closed
Gone fishin'
Back next week
Under repair
Out of order
Help wanted
Dead end street
Sittin' at the window in a dream
Tellin' myself I was fine, lyin'
What I was really doin', paintin' signs
Pretendin' I wasn't home
Bills and junk mail pilin' up by the door
Sittin' at the window in a dream
Lyin' to myself, that's for sure
See, what I was really doin', paintin' signs
Soul on strike
Sorry closed
Gone fishin'
Back next week
Under repair
Out of order
Help wanted
Dead end street
Losin' weight and losin' my mind
One day at a time, oh Lord
In the mirror, face growin' thinner
Foolin' myself but no one else
Peepin' through life's blinds, skippin' dinner
What I was really doin', paintin' signs
Soul on strike
Sorry closed
Gone fishin'
Back next week
Under repair
Out of order
Help wanted
Dead end street
Sittin' at the window in a dream
Tellin' myself I was fine, lyin'
What I was really doin', paintin' signs
