Red House Painter - Uncle Joe lyrics

where have all the people gone in my life

i'm looking at the ceiling

with an awful feeling of loss

and loneliness

the after late night television pain

i'm running out of strength

and it feels so wonderful

to swim in our fear

and it's unacceptable

the awakening of life

oh, uncle joe

could you tell me what you know?

i've been having mental problems

and the solution is unclear

i'll give anything a try once

i'll try anything three times

i don't care

but there's no company

that i can stand to be with me

so my dependency on you grows

and i am not very well read

and did you say that i will lose my house

and can you spare me of my pain

and can you spare me of my tears

oh, uncle joe

it was unintentional

when i spit in your beer

i am overinfluenced

by movies

let's all go to the pier tomorrow

the darkest pool

did you know lies below the sky
