go ask mom

Children wake up
Mommies kiss their heads
Daddies go to work to make some money
Or Mommies do instead
We learn all that we can to be so smart
we eat our carrots to see in the dark

And the Darkness comes in at the end of each day
to signal the end of play
And we go to sleep again
And begin

Daddy said to play fair
Mommy always told me to remember and share
Don’t watch too much television
Say thank you for what you have been given
Eat your peas
don’t climb up tall trees.

And the Darkness comes in at the end of each day
to signal the end of play
And we go to sleep again
And begin

Mommy said don’t ask stupid questions
Daddy said just because
Read the instructions before use
Sit down, shut up
“the rules are the rules”
Don’t play with your food

And the Darkness comes in at the end of each day
to signal the end of play
And we go to sleep again
And begin

School said the world spins
Round and round about the sun
In a universe shot out of a gun
“a million to one”
Mommy said don’t have too much fun

And the Darkness comes in at the end of each day
to signal the end of play
And we go to sleep again
And begin
