The milk is spoiled
 The clothes need a washin
 The baby's a cryin down the hall
 Supper was ruined
 The dishes still need doin
 There aint a damn thing on TV at all
 And I got chains
 Around my ankles
 And I got chains
 Around my heart
 I see my dreams
 Flying out that window
 Catching a fast freight train rollin' through the dark
 And I'm standing still
 Ooooo, unfulfilled
 I'm tired of tasting sulfur
 Damn, this river water
 But lately you know he ain't been too much help, No
 He wasn't always this lazy, I guess he'sjust gone crazy
 He's probably feeling the same way I feel myself
 Like I got chains
 Around my ankles
 Oh, I get chains
 Around my heart
 I see my dreams
 Just flying out that window
 Catching a fast freight train rollin' through the dark
 And I'm unfulfilled
 Can't you see me
 Oooo, unfulfilled
 That's right
 Oooo, unfulfilled
 Ahahahaha
 The lace is faded
 Another day gets wasted
 And I'm wondering
 If my mom and daddy
 done it this way
 Such a comfortable situation
 But it hides a quiet desperation
 And I reckon that's the reason why I stay
 Oooh, cause I got chains
 Around my ankles
 Oh, I got chains
 Around my heart
 And I see my dreams,
 Just flying out that window
 Catching a fast freight train running through the dark
 And I'm unfulfilled
 Hmmm,
 Oooh, unfulfilled
 Can't you see me
 Oooh, unfulfilled
 Nah, oohh , I'm standing still
