Everything Must Go

Intro Red tag on the cradle and the cross

Verse 1 Red tag on the cradle and the cross Forty percent off the things we lost The pews went first, then the copper wire We sold the hymnal to the highest buyer Mister, that's my mother's wedding chair Sign says all sales final, all sales fair

Pre-Chorus Last truck idling at the door Nothing in this town worth crying for

Chorus Everything must go Everything we built and everything we know Take the steeple, take the snow Town's a clearance rack, everything must go

Verse 2 The Hendersons are auctioning the farm Barcode stuck on grandpa's good-luck charm The bank don't bury, the bank just lists Priced my whole damn childhood down to this We shake on it, he don't meet my eye Wrote a town's whole life on a paper tie

Pre-Chorus Last truck idling at the door Nothing in this town worth crying for

Chorus Everything must go Everything we built and everything we know Take the steeple, take the snow Town's a clearance rack, everything must go

Bridge What's a life worth, marked half-price? Who buys the church? Who throws the dice? We sold the lights so the dark could grow Everything must go Everything we built and everything we know Take the steeple, take the snow Town's a clearance rack, everything must go

Outro Everything must go Lights off, everything must go
