Anna
You know we could have had a daughter and we could have
named her Anna
And she would have been a sweetheart but with punk rock
manners
Could have supported us when we retire, bought us a
cottage near the countryside
You could have taught her to play hockey
I could have taught her the guitar
And her granddad could show her the way to the bar
Could have supported us when we retire, bought us a
cottage near the countryside
We would have made the neighbours jealous
We could have had barbecues at nights
With our collected brain resource she would have an IQ
of 155
Could have supported us when we retire, bought us a
cottage near the countryside
She would have won the Nobel Prize and thanked her mama
for all the good advice
And we could have gone swimming near that cottage by
the lake
And she'd never had to know what it's like when your
heart breaks
When your heart breaks
When your heart breaks
When your heart breaks
When your heart breaks
Could have supported us when we retire, bought us a
cottage near the countryside
Could have supported us when we retire, bought us a
cottage near the countryside
She would have married a Kennedy
She would have found the cure for HIV
Well I’m real sorry Anna you never got to be
Cause your daddy moved on and he left me
Could have supported us when we retire, bought us a
cottage near the countryside
