'CAUSE THEY'RE TALL

Most grown-ups are strange
In a weird sort of way
‘Cause of what they do
And what they think and say

They are always clean
They have no fun at all
Always serious
Perhaps because they’re tall

Clean clean clean some more
Our camel, pig, our mouse
Like that’s not enough
So then Dad paints the house

Always paying bills
Mom gives the cat a bath
Grown-ups don’t make sense
I rather would do math

Then Mom scared me bad
With what she had to say
She said that in time
I’ll be grown up some day
