Should I go wandering in my nightshirt
Should I forget my way back home
Should I be lost and later founded
Should I be hair and skin and bone
You know the ending that we all dread
And you’ll remember what we both said
Tuck me up in bed
Make sure I’m drunk and fed
Kiss me goodnight
When I close my eyes
Take a hammer to my head
If you should find me in your garden
Soaked in piss and cowering by your wall
Should I just sit there staring coldly
You see no sign of me at all
You know the ending that we all dread
And you’ll remember what we both said
Tuck me up in bed
Make sure I’m drunk and fed
Kiss me goodnight
When I close my eyes
Take a hammer to my head
If I should mock and treat you cruelly
If I should lose my sense of strength
If I forget our love completely
If I should break your arm instead
You know the ending that we all dread
And you’ll remember what we both said
Tuck me up in bed
Make sure I’m drunk and fed
Kiss me goodnight
When I close my eyes
Take a hammer to my head
