Lyrics The Front Bottoms

The Front Bottoms

Father

I have this dream that I am hitting my dad with a

baseball bat

And he is screaming and crying for help

And maybe halfway through it has more to do with me

killing him

Then it ever did protecting myself

And I believe that yeah, dad, maybe no one is perfect

But I believe that you are pushing your luck

It just sucks it played out like this

A terrible movie and you can tell none of the actors

even give a fuck

But you look good tonight girlfriend,

Can I sleep in your bed

And when I crawl out in the morning,

Can I stay inside your head

'Cause you were high school

And I was just more like real life

And you were okay, okay as a girlfriend

But I was just more like his wife

I'll do the pushups

I'll wear the makeup

I'll do whatever he wants all night

'Cause you were okay, okay as a girlfriend

But I was just more like real life.

A long, long time ago my great, great, great, great

grandfather

took something that did not belong to him

And that is why today I have an eagle in my veins

I am part Native American

And I am leaving as soon as I come,

As soon as I come you will probably forget my name

I hope I fall asleep at the wheel and crash my car (on

the way home)

Or I could just stay here, because

you look good tonight girlfriend,

Can I sleep in your bed?

And when I crawl out in the morning,

Can I stay inside your head?

'Cause you were high school

And I was just more like real life

And you were okay, okay as a girlfriend

But I was just more like his wife

I'll wear the makeup

I'll do the pushups

I'll do whatever he wants all night

'Cause you were okay, okay as a girlfriend

But I was just more like real life.
