"Useless Trinkets" lyrics - EELS

Look at that picture on the wall
And what do you see?
The eyes of a goat in a cowboy suit
Lookin' like me

The attic is smoldering
The hallways bleed
And the basement is full of useless trinkets
That I don't need

I need you to know I'm not insane
I know where I go I'm not afraid
To leave behind a place like this

So if you need to look away
If you feel a little sick
You don't have to be afraid
I'll show you a trick

The porch is a rusty cage
The garden's a weed
And the basement is full of useless trinkets
That I don't need

I need you to know I'm not insane
I know where I go I'm not afraid
To leave behind a place like this
