They Know Where I Live Lyrics & Chords By Craig Finn

When those dudes from St. Paul
Pulled into the driveway
You suggested we hide in the basement.
You said don’t make a sound.

When those dudes from St. Paul
Were pissing on your front lawn
We were watching through the windows.
You said breathe through your nose.

They circled the house for a while
Then they got bored.
The next time we checked they had left.
They left us alone.

When those dudes from St. Paul
Were hitting your front door with a hammer
You said very little.
I think I heard you say a prayer.

I think its time you told me what’s happening.
Its not every person that invites you to a party
Then asks you to pretend
Like there’s nobody there.

They wrote a note on the hood of your car.
They broke your windshield with a brick
Then they left.
They left us alone.

But they know who I am
And they know that we’re friends
And they know where I live
And that’s why I’m scared.

That’s why I’m scared to go home.

They know where I live.
