Popcorn and a Smoothie
Happy birthday, I know I forgot
Did your mum say i'm working nights?
Now i know that you'll hear this a lot
But i promise i'll make it right
But how is school?
Do you need new shoes?
I heard you're getting taller
And i know that it feels like a while
But on saturday morning, I'll call you
Maybe I could take you to the movies
You could get some popcorn and a smoothie
Sit next to me
Oh, 'cause I just wanna get to know you
Maybe I could meet you at the school gates
And take you to the park before it's too late
Is that okay?
I can explain why i'm only here sometimes
Oh, only here sometimes
Are you eating and sleeping enough?
Is thеre something you love to do?
Is it еasy for you to make friends?
Do you have to pretend you're cool?
Do you act like a saint?
Do you always complain?
Or drive your mother insane like me?
Do you wonder why i'm not around?
Do you even remember me?
Maybe I could take you to the movies
You could get some popcorn and a smoothie
Sit next to me
Oh, 'cause i just wanna get to know you
Well, maybe i could meet you at the school gates
And take you to the park before it's too late
Is that okay?
I can explain why i'm only here sometimes
Only, i'm only here sometimes, oh
And I know that I should be doing more
And I will
'Cause you deserve to know a happy home
Well, maybe I could take you to the movies
You could get some popcorn and a smoothie
Sit next to me
Oh, 'cause I just wanna get to know you
And maybe I could meet you at the school gates
And take you to the park before it's too late
Is that okay?
I can explain why i'm only here sometimes, yeah
Oh, i'm only here sometimes, yeah
Did your mum say i'm working nights?
