Yard Sale

I had a yard sale today and I threw out all of your stuff
It was crowding my house, it had  been here long enough

I put a sign in the front yard saying " IT ALL HAS TO GO"
"COME AND GET THIS MESS PLEASE, I DONT WANT IT NO MO'"

I emptied all the mess that was in your duffle bag,
Yes, I had a yard sale today, and sold all of your trash

By the way, when I was cleaning out your closet, I found a picture of a child
And don’t deny that he’s your, the little boy has your smile

So please don’t call me again, asking if you can come and get your clothes
Because where they are now, heaven only knows

See, I started to pour bleach on your jeans  and burn all of your shoes 
But to be  quit frank, my dear, that would have been too good for you

So I had a yard sale today, and everything is gone
You have nothing else here, so now could you please 

STOP BLOWING UP MY PHONE???????
