My Room
They got five televisions in a house built for three Look upon that fake fireplace, note the bucktoothed boy's me See that wood paneled room? That's where I learned to drink You see that hole in the wall? That was seagrams I think That tree was a goal post, that bathroom it was a shroud That closet it was a phone booth, and that mirror was a crowd See that guy with the bad knees and his heart on his sleeve? Watch him slip me ten dollars when it comes time to leave... It's been five years and some change and this world is gettin' so strange but this house smells just the same And my mom, my sweet mom, she don't remember my name... my mom she can't remember my name, my mom I sit on the bed, I kiss her right behind the ear she calls out for a dog that's been dead for a year I say ‘how is it going?' just like I didn't know I hold on the both of her hands too afraid to let her go And five times exactly, no more and no less, she says ‘how you've been eatin', boy?' and I say ‘Ok, I guess' In this room where she made me, each day she grows weak she flips on the ‘Golden girls' and the first tear hits my cheek Letras de cancionesIt's been five years and some change and this world is gettin' so strange but this old house smells just the same and my mom, my sweet mom, she don't remember my name my mom, can't remember my name, she's my mom now, she can't remember my name... my mom can't remember my name... my mom From Letras Mania
