Doghouse

©1988 Andrew Calhoun, unrecorded

There's a little boy in a doghouse
Whispering to me
Whispering to me
Says, "you should leave,"
And I agree

Look at this picture
That my scared brother drew
I ask my scared brother,
What should your brother do?

Little boy in a doghouse
Living on cornbread
Says, "I don't have much to my name,
But it's better than being dead."

Somehow the best
Became the worst
It's here I'm drinking and
Drinking and drowning in thirst

Little boy in a doghouse
Smiled and he opened up his hand
Says, "I keep no secrets here,
But you must move to understand"

When you receive the truth
The sky will open an endless youth
When you try to hide from sin
It's a tiny universe to hide in
