plastic bag ghost blow down   haunted alleyway   it's comin' on winter and i should be putting things in place      me and james in the backyard   you and nancy in the kitchen   james says you told nance that you think of me differently now      i was in the garage   grabbed the last of my boxes   i checked your oil for ya   you could use some good tires before the storm      all the downtown windows   are lit up for the holidays   do they really think a string of colored lights is gonna rescue me?   and when i see it in parking lots   when i'm hittin' the bars   i say to my buddies,    "there's my ex-girlfriend's car"
