(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.
