Merry Go ‘round

If you ain't got two kids by 21,
your probably gonna die alone
at least that's what tradition told you.
And it don't matter if you don't believe,
come sunday morning you best be there
in the front row, like your s'posed to.
Same hurt in every heart.
Same trailer, different park.
Mamas hooked on Mary Kay

[Refrão]
Brothers hooked on Mary Jane
And Daddies hooked on Mary two doors down.
Mary Mary quite contrary,
we get bored so we get married
and just like dust we settle in this town.
On this broken Merry go 'round and round and round we go, where it stops

[Próxima Parte]
nobody knows
and it ain't slowin down, this merry go round
We think the first time's good enough,
So we hold on to highschool love,
Say we won't end up like our parents.
Tiny little boxes in a row,
ain't what you want it's what you know,
Just happy in the shoes your wearin.
Same checks we're always cashin,
to buy a little more distraction.
Mamas hooked on Mary Kay

[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
nobody knows
and it ain't slowin down, this merry go round
Mary Mary quite contrary,
we're so bored until we're burried
and just like dust we settle in this town.
On this broken Merry go 'round
Merry Go 'Round
Jack and Jill went up the hill,
Jack burned out on booze and pills,
and mary had a little lamb,
mary just don't give a damn no more
