Tom Paxton - Oops lyrics

We got a brand new puppy We called that puppy “Clyde” Mom said I'd have to train him To wait and go outside I started watching TV The time went flying by But when I saw what Clyde had done I thought that I would die Oops! I made a big mistake Oops! I didn't calculate I thought I'd be okay And then oops! I'm sorry We came home with the groceries Bags and bags of stuff My job was putting things away And that was not so tough But first I started playing And then I played some more Till all the frozen groceries Were dripping on the floor Oops! I made a big mistake Oops! I didn't calculate I thought I'd be okay And then oops! I'm sorry My clothes were really dirty I packed them up and then I took them to the Laundromat To get them clean again I bought a box of soap suds As wide as it was tall I wasn't sure how much to use And so I used it all Oops! I made a big mistake Oops! I didn't calculate I thought I'd be okay And then oops! I'm sorry Last Friday was my bath night I ran the water hot I put in all my ships and boats (I like my boats a lot) And while the tub was filling I took a walk around I was downstairs with Momma When I heard a splashing sound Oops! I made a big mistake Oops! I didn't calculate I thought I'd be okay And then oops! I'm sorry Oops! I made a big mistake Oops! I didn't calculate I thought I'd be okay And then oops! I'm sorry I thought I'd be okay And then oops! I'm sorry
