17He ate from the bins in the park
18Stayed out with the rats after dark
19Never left a trail, never made his mark
20When he ate with the rats after dark
21
22Sweep my mess away
23Leave my body, leave my bones
24Leave me whole and leave my soul
25Leave me nothing, I don't need at all
26Nothing, I don't need at all

28Calling on his friends, never made him sad
29Didn't want the things he never had
30It only made them feel so bad
31For having the things he never had
32
33Sweep my mess away
34Leave my body, leave my bones
35Leave me whole and leave my soul
36Leave me nothing, I don't need at all
37Nothing, I don't need at all

39If you stay in that box overnight
40And don't get out when it gets light
41There's not much lost of the secret life
42That's done wrong and it's never done right
43Now some more flowers grow
44The corn gets eaten by a few more crows
45And an old man's box is full of bones
46Won't see his footprints in the snow
47
48Sweep my mess away
49Leave my body, leave my bones
50Leave me whole and leave my soul
51Leave me nothing, I don't need at all
52Nothing, I don't need at all
53
54Sweep my mess away
55Leave my body, leave my bones
56Leave me whole and leave my soul
57Leave me nothing, I don't need at all
58Nothing, I don't need at all
