Welcome to the Family

my body up on the table
my eyes on the roof
head in my shoes
and this is where I wanna be
four feet off the ground and waiting for the rain
my thoughts go marching by one by one
from moment to moment
they like to yell what they have in mind
looking inside not sure what I'll find
wash this away
Im looking forward to the weather change
no need for shelter
our skin is the only thing getting soaked
our paths are whats gettin cloaked
you can tippy toe across this
but I'd rather do a little dance
cuz you only get 15 minutes
come inside and meet the tenants
they all have stories to tell
a few have some lies to sell
but rents due and someone aint payin
and Im on my knees prayin
hoping this works out perfectly
but looking back on things
thats all they ever seem to do
