TRASHCAN MAN

What did old lady Semple say
When you torched her pension check?
You burned the church
You should have burned the school
Carley Yates he hated you
But you survived the plague
And Randall Flagg
Don't treat you like a fool

Trashcan Man
The Trashcan Man
The world's a tire you set on fire
One layer at a time

Scarred by scalding Cheery Oil
When you burned the Cheery plant
You couldn't find a shelter from the blast
Searching something bigger
'Cause you swore your life for him
And three pillars of fire just won't last

Trashcan Man
The Trashcan Man
You found your fate when Carley Yates
And most of humankind
Were horrified to find
There was no cure
No cure for Superflu

The sheriff shot your father
'Cause your father shot your sister
And your brothers not your mother no
She married the man that shot your father

What did old lady Semple say
When you torched her pension check?
You burned the Earth
From the East to the West
The people in Las Vegas
Treat you just as mean as home
But give your gift to Randall
He's your best friend until the end

Trashcan Man
The Trashcan Man
The West expired
You set on fire the West on accident

If you can't stand the heat
Stay out of the world
(Trashy can't, the Trashcan Man)

-based on the book
THE STAND
by Stephen King
