I have this dream that I am hitting my dad with a baseball bat
And he is screaming and crying for help
And maybe halfway through it has more to do with me killing him
Then it ever did protecting myself
And I believe that yeah, dad, maybe no one is perfect
But I believe that you were pushing your luck
It just sucks it played out like this
A terrible movie none of the actors even give a fuck
But you look good tonight girlfriend,
Can I sleep in your bed?
And when I crawl out in the morning,
Can I stay inside your head?
'Cause you were high school
And I was just more like real life
And you were okay, okay as a girlfriend
But I was just more like his wife
And it was okay
I'll wear the makeup
I'll do whatever he wants all night
'Cause you were okay as a girlfriend
But I was just more like his wife.
A long, long, long, long, long, long, long time ago
my great, great, great, great grandfather
took something that did not belong to him
And that is why today I have an eagle in my veins
I am part Native American
And I am leaving as soon as I come,
As soon as I come you will probably forget my name
I hope I fall asleep at the wheel and crash my car on the ride home
But you look good tonight girlfriend,
Can I sleep in your bed?
And when I crawl out in the morning,
Can I stay inside your head?
'Cause you were high school
And I was just more like real life
And you were okay, okay as a girlfriend
But I was just more like his wife
And it was okay
I'll wear the makeup
I'll do whatever he wants all night
'Cause you were okay as a girlfriend
But I was just more like real life.
More like real life!
-I hope you enjoy; my little droogies.
