When Margaret Comes to Town

[Verse 1]

When you were a kid you received no good instruction

And your mother was never nowhere to be found

The lies were yelled, the truth was seldom spoken

[Chorus]

That's what you get when Margaret comes to town

She likes to keep things upside down

When Margaret comes to town

[Verse 2]

When your thoughts are twisted and distorted

And your children are forced to choose sides and lie down

And the keeper is screaming drunk running around naked

[Chorus]

It's for your pleasure when Margaret comes to town

She likes to keep things upside down

When Margaret comes to town

[Bridge]

Oh, but those who believe in her

They cut off their noses to spite their faces

Leaving you the little one scared and lonely

Who really cares about you now?

[Verse 3]

So if you see her coming, man, you'd better take cover

She stays down at the dark end of a frown

And just like the sirens that are so sweetly singing

[Chorus]

It's better just to leave when Margaret comes to town

When Margaret comes to town

She likes to keep things upside down

When Margaret comes to town

She likes to keep things upside down

When Margaret comes to town
