Mallrat lyrics.... Options

[swami]

This has probably been presented plenty of times, but (forgive me) I've been absent. Are these lyrics agreed upon?

His children register false names
His lovers play all these head games
And on his porch he has a swing
It's quiet, he can't hear a damn thing

We got a mallrat who is deaf in the kitchen, now
We got a jack-in-the-box
And in his twilight while he collects his pension
He's gonna raise us all up

His children don't have a needle
Just a city hall with a dome
Now, people love to see him on his back alone
Somebody please, somebody please take him home

We got a mallrat who is deaf in the kitchen, now
We got a jack-in-the-box
And in his twilight while he collects his pension
He's gonna raise us all up

We got a mallrat who is deaf in the hallway
We got a jack-in-the-box
And in his twilight while he collects his pension
He's gonna raise us all up

I'm pretty sure Ed says this:

It's chilly don't have a needle
Just a city hall with a dome light

I think he is referencing a junkie going through withdrawals here.

Check out the earlier live version too, wonder what you think he says opposed to chilly there

just a city hall with a dome
