I think you're old enough to know better
But i'm old enough to remember
(don't even trip........)
I won't use that stupid boy forever
(cross your heart and hope to die)

Don't even trip,
Don't get too big for your britches
(don't even trip........)
All these bones been jumping out of your closet
(you're not in your closet yet)
So blasé,
Don't turn and look the other way
(you wanna be a star)
You want to be a star
You're oh so near, yet oh so far

(don't even trip........)

You'll be back inside before the winter
On that long, long trip before december
(don't even trip........)
Don't be throwing stones at the window
(lock in peace and close your house?)

Don't even trip,
Don't get too big for your britches
(don't even trip........)
All these bones been jumping out of your closet
(you're not in your closet yet)
So blasé,
Don't turn and look the other way
(you've gotta have it all)
You've got to have it all
You're oh so near, yet oh so far

And i know that [bad word] grow on trees but i'm here to trim the leaves
And i'm afraid
Daddy you're still my friend
And you're just a piece of [bad word] But i can over-look it today
'cause you're still my friend

(don't even trip........)

Drop that gun, you aren't my [bad word] hero
(don't even trip........)
You think its cool to be a [bad word] zero
I can't believe i called you my amigo
(take a deep breath you'll be fine)

Speek up now
And one of you is a hundred loud?
(when you preach [bad word] off?)
When you preach,
They'll join you on the roofs and streets
(like crystal clear)
Crystal clear,
I'm hanging like a chandelier
(watching over you)
Watching over you,
I'll move you from a song to tears

And i know that [bad word] grow on trees
But i'm going to trim the leaves
And i can say
Daddy you're still my friend
And you're still a piece of [bad word] but i can over-look it today
'cause you're still my friend
And i know that [bad word] grow on trees
But i'm here to trim the leaves
And i'm afraid
Are you still my friend?
And you're still a piece of [bad word] but i can look the other way
'cause you're still my friend
(don't even trip........)
