Oven

Get down and pray to the oven

She thinks that god is there, in there

Do you see Sylvia in the oven?

Colossal Fact, Daddy's ex don't let you read.

Here's what she sees.



In the end her only friend, keeps herself wide

open

looks into a higher ground

What did husband say was found?

She found - a daughter going on with her life

I can't juggle this

I can't juggle this

I can't juggle this



When it slips she says:

This Kansas wheat won't break me

and another drink won't take me

I can make it if you can



Strip it down wide open still

Was your head caught in that pill?

Was your life one big regret?

The smartest man she ever met

was not buried or put up on a cross



And she thinks it's over, still

if that light won't go on

There's no hope in life at all

if the oven won't burn



This Kansas wheat won't break us

and another drink won't make us free

The oven's wide open, hold your breath and see.

Hold your breath and see . . .
