I want to stay in the Video drone  
safe and alone when Dad's not home
stains on the carpet and
dolls on the shelves
put a phone in my room
so the boys call the house

I want to stay in the video drone
where no one's awake yet and Mom isn't home
I know Snakes hide in apples
in books on my shelves
I'm too busy this summer to read them myself
the phone's always for me
the boys call the house.

I want to stay in the video drone
I once thought I heard it say God's coming home
the tides are high in the holy city
I pray Saint Julia cause' shes pretty
I drink the wine the prophet sold me
and I keep Faith cause' TV told me
