House of Pain/Faster Pussycat

          
It's a little past supper time 

I'm still out on the porch step 
            			     
Sittin' on my behind, waiting for you. 
    
Wondering if everything was all right? 
  
Momma said, "Come in boy don't waste your time." 
         			           
I said, "I got time. Well he'll be here soon." 
                                    
I was five years old and talkin to myself
  		      
Where were you? Where'd ya go? 
                 
Daddy can't you tell? 

(Chorus) 


I'm not tryin' to fake it,
       
and I ain't the one to blame. 
               
No, there's no one home 
               
In my house of pain. 

I didn't write these pages and
       
my scripts been re-arranged. 
            
No, there's no one home 
               
in my house of pain. 


  
Wasn't I worth the time? 
  
A boy needs a daddy like a dance to mime 
    				   
And all the time I looked up to you. 
                                
I paced my room a million times. 
      
And all I ever got was one big line 
      		           
The same old lie. How could you? 
                                        
Well I was eighteen and still talkin' to myself. 
              
Where were you? Where'd you go? 
                 
Daddy can't ya tell?
