Too petty, his little girl, you've gone so far Keep begging until you're smiling you're a movie star Songs from the 50s your mamas used to sing Oh, in the kitchen while she's makin' dinner for your family Keep drinking baby girl keep your head up high Waiting for your mama to sing lullabies Well, daddy isn't here and mama's smoking instead Oh, headaches from the smoke you smell ain't getting wrecked Closure to encourage and you'll be alright Sing yourself to sleep we're gonna be afraid All you haven't got, always a rivalry While your lungs are filled with all the smoke you breathe Don't you worry, now you sleep you little thing Daddy will come back and therefore he will sing Sing your precious lullaby to you he will While mama smokes her cancer to the dawn still Closer to encourage and I'll be awake Sing yourself to sleep we're gonna be afraid All you have to start always is rivalry While your lungs are filled with all the smoke you breathe Closure to encourage and you'll be alright Sing yourself to sleep we're gonna be afraid All you have to start always is rivalry While your lungs are filled with all the smoke you breathe
