Intro
Riff x2
Verse
Going over to susan's house
Walking south down baxter street
Nothing hiding behind this picket fence
There's a crazy old woman smashing bottles
On the sidewalk where her house burnt down two years ago
Riff 2
People say that back then she really wasn't that crazy
F5
Going over to susan's house
Going over to susan's house
She's gonna make it right
Riff
Down by the donut prince
A fifteen year old boy lies on the sidewalk
With a bullet in his forehead
In a final act of indignity
The paramedics take off all his clothes
For the whole world to see
While they put him in the bag
Meanwhile an old couple argues inside the queen bee
The sick fluorescent light shimmering on their skin
Going over to susan's house
Going over to susan's house
I can't be alone tonight

A kid asks do i want some crack
Tv sets are spewing baywatch
Through the windows into black
Riff x2
Riff
Here comes a girl with long brown hair
Who can't be more than seventeen
She sucks on a red popsicle while she pushes a baby girl
In a pink carriage
And i'm thinking that must be her sister
That must be her sister, right?
They go into the 7-11
And i keep walking
Going over to susan's house
