Picket Fences |
Little boys and little girls dream of big, big things |
They’re taught at a tender age just what life should bring |
Get a job, say I do and settle yourself down |
But what about those of us whose lives are still spinnin' around |
Tell me what’s so great about picket fences |
Paintin' them’s such a mess |
And a big back yard where kids can play |
I’d probably never get a moment’s rest |
And settin' the table for five at five |
Only means more dishes to load |
What’s so great about picket fences |
I guess I’ll never know |
Here I am in my prime, at least they tell me so |
And if I go to sleep at night I always go alone |
I guess that I could have it all and someone by my side |
But I can’t take the give and take the price is just too high |
Tell me what’s so great about picket fences |
Paintin' them’s such a mess |
And a big back yard where kids can play |
I’d probably never get a moment’s rest |
And settin' the table for five at five |
Only means more dishes to load |
What’s so great about picket fences |
I guess I’ll never know |
Tell me what’s so great about picket fences |
I guess I’ll never know |
