you gotta have the right t ools
fo r every job
so I i nvite myself i n
through a hole i n the fence
I am trippi ng through the junkyard
scanni ng over the piles
the thi n cats rai se their ski n i n defense
I know he's watchi ng me
I can see him through the cracks
hi s eyes are small a nd shy on my back
he says hi s name i s jason
he lives i n the last trailer on the right
a nd he'll be seven
on the fourth of july

only the people who live here
know the name of thi s place
my path through iowa would be
hard t o trace
all the adults i n thi s t own
try n ot t o frown
when I walk by
but jason smiled at me
he met my eye

he don't ask me
where I am from
o r why I came
here alone
we all go looki ng fo r paradi se
then we go back home
we cut out the small talk
go right t o the way thi ngs are
he showed me hi s squirrel skull
I t old him I locked myself out of my car

so there goes the only friend
I have i n iowa
hi s ha nd flappi ng behi nd him
wavi ng good-bye
hi s name i s jason
he lives i n the last trailer on the right
a nd he'll be seven
on the fourth of july
