Mother's Day |
| She died with a smile right under her nose |
| The drive-by victim of a big drug overdose |
| She was a whore from the ol' street corner uptown |
| I’m the only one who came to see 'em lower her down |
| I saw her last light shining |
| She always said go to prom and quit your whining |
| I must confess |
| I didn’t know just what she meant then |
| One time I seen it was a marriage she ran away from |
| I saw the jewelry when she got her upper button undone |
| I linked the crime to the corner where we met |
| I wanted some but she said I wasn’t young enough yet |
| I’m on another merry-go-round |
| And I scream but I don’t make a sound |
| Virginia was just another person I found |
| We’ve come a long way in a sense |
| We’ve lost a lot of innocence |
| Don’t try to keep us in a fence |
| We’ll break through |
| I guess I kill a little somethin' every place I go |
| Boys, you can stutter but don’t you ever stop that flow |
| And girls, you just keep on teasin' us guys with your eyes |
| Virginia did it every day until the day she died |
| Several scenes are based on IQ |
| I’d like to say I never liked you |
| But one thing I learned, don’t you ever lie |
| You’ll get burned |
| I know I’ll see you in the future when I least expect |
| I know a victim of a right-turn cynical wreck |
| But memory is strange and it fades away |
| I think I love you but who is anybody to say? |
| It’s all the shots I’ve taken |
| Somebody better bring a keg in |
| 'Cause I think it’s startin' to rain |
| On your wedding day |
| We’ve come a long way in a sense |
| We’ve lost us lots of innocence |
| Don’t try to keep us in a fence |
| We’ll break through |
