Oh, oh, the days went slow into the changing season
And that big ol' house went up for sale
In the age of television
Oh, oh, down they go, for all the wrong reasons
And she made a vow to have it all
Oh, oh, bought and sold for all the wrong reasons
Where the sky begins the horizon ends
Oh, oh, out in the cold for all the wrong reasons
Well she grew up hard and she grew up fast
Oh, oh, the days go slow, into the changing season
They were on the road by morning
He becomes his own invention
It became her new religion
And a big old man goes up for sale
Oh, oh, down in her soul, it was an act of treason
Despite the best intentions
