When The Kids Are Gone |
Once our lives were all about kids |
All about kids and the things kids did |
Me and the missus and Little League games |
And then one year when the summertime came |
I said, «I think they’re old enough |
To go to summer camp and do summer camp stuff» |
So we signed them up for a two-week stint |
My wife said to me just before they went |
«What are we gonna do when the kids are gone |
For two long weeks and we’re all alone? |
Will we know how to act here on our own? |
What are we gonna do» (What are we gonna do) |
«When the kids are gone?» |
And I said, «Hmm» |
«Make love in the kitchen and howl at the moon |
Run butt-naked through the dining room» |
(Butt-naked, butt-naked through the dining room) |
«Stay out late with all of our friends |
And run hog-wild 'til the summer camp ends» |
Well, there was dating and proms and graduation |
Off to college for more education |
Then one day, it became real clear |
That it wouldn’t be long 'til they wouldn’t be here |
Once again, my wife said |
«What are we gonna do when the kids are grown |
When they’re all moved out and we’re on our own? |
When we get back our lives and our telephone |
Said what are we gonna do» (What are we gonna do) |
«When the kids are grown?» |
And I said, «Let's see, heh-heh-heh» |
«We'll make love in the kitchen and howl at the moon |
Run butt-naked through the dining room» |
(Butt-naked, butt-naked, butt-naked, butt-naked) |
«Buy a red Corvette and a silver van |
And run hog-wild 'til we’re in Depends» |
Then one day the children sat us both down |
Said, «We see you’re having trouble just getting around |
We’d hate to see you come to some harm |
So we’re sending you off to the Sunset Farms» |
My wife cried, and said |
«What are we gonna do when they put us in the home |
When the kids sell off everything we own? |
When our hearing and our vision and our teeth are gone |
Now what are we gonna do» (What are we gonna do) |
«When they put us in the home?» |
And I said, «Heh-heh-heh» |
«Make love in the kitchen and howl at the moon |
Run butt-naked through the dining room» |
(Butt-naked, butt-naked, butt, butt, butt-naked) |
«If they tell us that we can’t, we’ll just do it again |
And run hog-wild 'til the whole thing ends» |
«Make love in the kitchen and howl at the moon |
Run butt-naked through the dining room» |
(Butt, butt, butt, butt, butt, butt, butt-naked) |
«If they tell us not to do it, we’ll just do it again |
And run hog-wild 'til this whole thing ends» |
«Make love in the kitchen and howl at the moon |
Run butt-naked through the dining room» |
(Butt-naked, naked, naked, naked, naked, naked, naked) |
«If they tell us, 'Don't do that', we’ll just do that again |
And run hog-wild 'til this whole thing ends» |
