Grasshopper
Don't think that I'd forget when
You took me out to get my first guitar
Still have a text that you sent
Said I am your special superstar
I hope you understand
I am the way I am because of you
I know that over time
I've probably bled you dry
isn't that what children are supposed to do
We built the fence and you built the home
And I left a mess as you watched me grow
Up up away
Thats how it's meant to be
You tell a joke as I turn away
To light up a smoke
I laugh any way
coocoocachoo...
You bring out the best in me
Nightshift in your taxi
I wonder when you're travelling around
Do you think good thoughts about me
Like when I taught you blanket on the ground
Saturdays we'd go to pinnochio's for a treat
I know that was because I no longer was
The baby of the family
We built the fence and you built the home
And I left a mess as you watched me grow
Up up away
Thats how it's meant to be
You tell a joke as I turn away
To light up a smoke
I laugh any way
coocoocachoo...
You bring out the best in me
I haven't always been the perfect daughter
But I hope I'll always be
Your little grasshopper
Your little grasshopper
Hopper yeh
Ooh ooh oooh
We built the fence and you built the home
And I left a mess as you watched me grow
Up up away
Thats how it's meant to be
You tell a joke as I turn away
To light up a smoke
I laugh any way
coocoocachoo...
You bring out the best in me
We built the fence and you built the home
And I left a mess as you watched me grow
Up up away
Thats how it's meant to be
You tell a joke as I turn away
To light up a smoke
I laugh any way
coocoocachoo...
You bring out the best in me
You took me out to get my first guitar
Still have a text that you sent
Said I am your special superstar
I hope you understand
I am the way I am because of you
I know that over time
I've probably bled you dry
isn't that what children are supposed to do
We built the fence and you built the home
And I left a mess as you watched me grow
Up up away
Thats how it's meant to be
You tell a joke as I turn away
To light up a smoke
I laugh any way
coocoocachoo...
You bring out the best in me
Nightshift in your taxi
I wonder when you're travelling around
Do you think good thoughts about me
Like when I taught you blanket on the ground

We built the fence and you built the home
And I left a mess as you watched me grow
Up up away
Thats how it's meant to be
You tell a joke as I turn away
To light up a smoke
I laugh any way
coocoocachoo...
You bring out the best in me
