Running From Your Dad
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Remember the summer time we were swinging
On the front porch out in the rain
It was sunday you were all dressed up again
Then we made out under the window pain
And I can still see your dad
Running after me with a shovel in his hand
I don't remember much after that
La la la la, la la la la, oh oh oh oh
La la la la, la la la la, oh oh oh oh
Remember on Christmas eve you were crying
I guess you didn't really like the gifts
Porno dvd's and see thru under wear
I should have saved all that for your sis
And I can still see your dad
Running after me with a shovel in his hand
I don't remember much after that
La la la la, la la la la, oh oh oh oh
La la la la, la la la la, oh oh oh oh
So I guess I'll just run away, run away, run away
He's starting to catch up
Run away, run away
I think I might throw up
Run away, run away
And I can still see your dad
Running after me with a shovel in his hand
I don't remember much after that
La la la la, la la la la, oh oh oh oh
La la la la, la la la la, oh oh oh oh
