Dogwood – Lapchild lyrics

Album: Good Ol' Daze

So we see it start again,
Another adolescent standing with her friends
Just one more guy too shy to tell her how he feels
So when he does, to us it's no big deal

They start to date and hug and kiss and hold hands
Also soon forgetting one of God's great commands
It says "You shall have no other Gods before me"
Did they care? No, 'cause they couldn't see

It started with a kiss, not just a little peck
Next thing he knew, he was slurpin on her neck
It's obvious to see, that he has no recompense
They're just another couple, that never make any sense

Just as a though becomes a deed
Soon there's a mouth you have to feed.
How the child count becomes three.
He and she are just a like
Barely got training wheels off of their bikes;
How did they expect to live carefree?

Always whining "There's no time to play"
Sorry, but that's the price you pay,
I have it was worth five minutes o' love.

Shucks, funds are getting tight
Money situation doesn't look too bright.
We'll see what happens when push comes to shove

It started with a kiss, not just a little peck,
Next thing he knew, he was slupin on her neck,
And now they have a kid, and another on the way
What a shame to see their sky is gray

It started with a kiss, not just a little peck,
Next thing he knew, he was slurpin on her neck,
It's obvious to see, he stumbled, then he fell,
Their foolish child games, put them in a living hell.
