Mom: What`s the matter honey, are you not feeling well? It`s okay, momma will take care of you.
Not really sick, but don`t you know I still say I am. Dad just mumbles, "there goes my girlie son acting up again".
Dad: How could you be my kid?
Mom knows I`m faking it But she understands what`ll happen if I go.
The last four days The tough guys have been on a roll. (They show him no mercy) Plenty of name calling And pushing my head in the toilet bowl. (They call him a loser) But they won`t get their hands on me today `cuz home with momma is where I`m gonna stay.
We`re pickin` daisies. Mom: Who cares about them anyway. Pickin` daisies. Mom: They`ll all be working for you someday. Pickin` daisies. Mom: They`re just jealous of you. Pickin` daisies. Mom: Next year you`ll go to private school.
Can`t play sports or games I`m only really good at reading. (He can`t catch a football) Apparently that`s not too cool That`s why my nose is usually bleeding. (Plus they give him fat lips) At this time yesterday, my underwear was over my head. But I`ll be safe today, I know `cuz momma said:
We`re pickin` daisies. Mom: Who really cares what they think. Pickin` daisies. Mom: You should talk about it with your shrink. Pickin` daisies. Mom: They`ll all end up in jail. Pickin` daisies. Mom: Marshalls is having a sale.
I know tomorrow it`ll all start up again. (He`ll be greeted with a head-lock) And all I can do is sit and pray for the weekend.
But I know when I`m older I`ll look back and laugh At all those kids who pulled my pants down And took that photograph `cuz we`ll be through with kickball We`ll all be weak and slow But I will be the only one With a magic place to go
Pickin` daisies. Mom: You`re better off in the end. Pickin` daisies. Mom: Who cares, I`ll be your friend. Pickin` daisies. Mom: You can always count on me. Pickin` daisies. Mom: I made you some iced tea. Pickin` daisies. Dasies Pickin` daisies Dasies Pickin` daisies Dasies Pickin` daisies Dasies Pickin` daisies
Mom: You are too very handsome, just not in a traditional way. When I was a kid, we didn`t have video games, we had pinball, but I could learn. Well, they`re just upset that they don`t have earmuffs. You can come to aerobics class with me and watch, all the ladies love you. Who needs name brand shirts? Yours is the same thing without a fancy tag. Why don`t you go to sleep? And when you wake up, then I`ll play you the Eddie Fisher record.
