Casualties
J. Tillman
I don't have enough
To get us all the way
Why'd you quit your job
Leave without your pay
Wasn't worth that much..
Broke into your mom's
While she was fast asleep
We took the VCR
Kissed her on the cheek
Got out to the yard
Put it on the steps
You turned to me and asked
'Who does a thing like this?'
Honey I don't know
I don't know anymore
We spent the next few years
Thinking about how we
Could make a better life
With fewer casualties
Until your mother passed
Left us all she had
We moved into the house
We bought a TV set
Wasn't worth that much..
