I Didn't Mean To
It seems whenever things go wrong, I'm the one who you accuse Sometimes I'm blamed for accidents and things that I just didn't do. I am very often guilty, it's true I do like to have fun, But usually I didn't mean to do the things you've said I've done. I didn't mean to break the window or sit down on the chocolate cake I didn't mean to spill my grape juice, can't a kid make a mistake? I didn't mean to forget my homework, I didn't mean to break the jar Or watch TV when you said not to or run down Grandma in Daddy's car. I didn't mean to hit my sister, I didn't mean to knock her down I didn't mean to tie her up and hold her mouth when she came 'round. I didn't mean to saw the table or seal up the bathroom door I was just experimenting to see what a hammer and nails are for. I didn't mean to break the lamp, I didn't mean to take so long, I didn't mean to shave the kitty, I now know that was very wrong Circumstances have been better, I didn't mean it--isn't that clear? But your two days late to take me home; hope you didn't mean to leave me here From Letras Mania
