lyrics

So they put you in a twin bed, Vickie,
hoped you'd occupy yourself.
Well what are you supposed to be doing,
trapped inside yourself?

With no teeth in your mouth,
and your hand tight and strained.

Ms. Lily, who were you before?
Do you lay inside your bed,
wishing it was the floor?

So you fret and you moan,
on your back in your room.

Do you ever dream?
And do you dream about peaches
heavy on their trees?

With no teeth in your mouth,
and your hand tight and strained,
on your back serpentined.

And do you dream about peaches
falling from their beams?

Ms. Lily, what are you doing on the floor?
You were safe inside your bed,
you should really speak up more.

With no teeth in your mouth.
