Madeline Adams - 1982 lyrics

Throw out the bone! You gave the dog away. A neighbor boy with dirt all in his face. He'll treat him just the same way. Oh, Mamma told you not to play Those marble games. But did you listen? Turned the TV on. Drowned out her voice with The sound. She didn't ask for Those nine months gone. You never thanked her For one. God blessed you On the day that you were born in 1982 And s**ed your tooth Straight out of your socket. It was a miracle it grew. God blessed you With two legs for moving And two arms that bust-on through The black and blue. All the dirt that all the world Has piled on top of you. Regret's a sin. It's a waste of time, they say. It robs you of friends and digs an early grave. Six feet deep in red clay. Why break your back just to find A resting place?
