When girls dressed in black, they all look so lonely |
|
And contraceptives don't get used by the horny |
|
You can't find the key to the door in your building |
|
But are you still willing? |
|
The responsibility becomes an afterthought |
|
When one remembers the things that they should've bought |
|
There's no pretending that you forgot |
|
Must everything in life have political ramifications |
|
Even taking kids on vacation or having a simple operation |
|
But my friend Billy told me that sometimes |
|
It takes a grown man a long time to learn |
|
Just what it takes a child a night to learn |
|
And my son proved his words |
|
Water pistol man full of ammunition |
|
Squirting at fires on a worldwide mission |
|
But did you ever think to stop to squirt |
|
The flowers in your own backyard |
|
For all my faux pas I never said, "Excuse me" |
|
Was the simplest things that always confused me |
|
I never stopped I never looked both ways |
|
Must it always a tug of love between friends and work |
|
Hope to learn the meaning of the word jerk |
|
Before it happens to a rope 'round my neck |
|
Let's build a bigger telescope |
|
So that we can see things more up close |
|
Farther away from where we really are |
|
I was up the whole night before |
|
Reading books about places I'll probably never go |
|
And those aren't good things to know about |
|
Water pistol man full of ammunition |
|
Squirting at fires on a worldwide mission |
|
But did you ever think to stop to squirt |
|
The flowers in your own backyard |
|
When I feel with my heart |
|
I know in my mind I should say with my lips |
|
But don't does that make you feel upset? |
|
I should know that the power of one man |
|
Seems like a small squirt |
|
When he aims at the flames of the whole earth |
|
But the fire starts at home |
|
Water pistol man full of ammunition |
|
Squirting at fires on a worldwide mission |
|
But did you ever think to stop to squirt |
|
The flowers in your own backyard |
