dallas, texas morning
bloody mary at ten
on a special day like this
they should have kept the kids in

it's saturday morning and the cars back up
as i'm standing in the yard with a ladle and a cup
it's little mary's birthday with an end so abrupt
they'll have to clean it up with a bucket and a mop

mrs. hansen had the girls 
at her house for breakfast to-day
slumber party p.j.'s
eleven candles on the cake - hooray

it's saturday morning and the cars back up
as i'm standing in the yard with a ladle and a cup
it's little mary's birthday with an end so abrupt
they'll have to clean it up with a bucket and a mop

coca cola and cupcakes
turn on the faucet for noise
i guess her friends will have to enjoy
all her brand new toys

it's saturday morning and the cars back up
as i'm standing in the yard with a ladle and a cup
it's little mary's birthday with an end so abrupt
they'll have to clean it up with a bucket and a mop

elementary school used to leave me cold
it's so hard to get a fix when you're eight years old
