Never Learn
She caught me coming in again
In the wee hours of the morn
She began explaining the facts of life
That’s how my shirt got torn
But looking on the bright side
As she removed my grin
At least I understand now
Why she held that rolling pin
What a wonderful way to start the day
After staying out late at the bars
Is to start it off with a concussion
Being indoors and seeing stars
I said I was helping an old friend out
Give me the phone and I can prove it
She said sorry, I know your head hurts
Bring it over here and I’ll remove it
I thought to myself, she’s pretty mad
And I was feeling like a jerk
Starting today I’ll never come home at this time
I’ll wait until she goes to work.
