AAtmospheres are Gtense today
AMother and Father Gare rowing again
ASilently seated Garound the table
AYou're the one Gthat's getting the blame
AFather looks at you Glike a snake
AYou play with the food Gupon your plate
ANo one seems to be Gon your side
AThings that threaten Gto hurt your pride
GMother loves to Gbe concerned
EmUsing lessons Athat she learnt
GFathers never Aunderstand
GWhen children have the Dupper AhandG  A  G  A  
ASmiling, you did yGour time at school
ACrying quietly Glike a fool
ASaturday night and GSunday morning
ADid all the things Gthey asked you to do
AThey say that home Gis where the heart is
ABut home is only Gwhere the hurt is
APull the wool Gover the eyes
AForget the worries Gthat you started
GMother loves to Gbe concerned
EmUsing lessons Athat she learnt
GFathers never Aunderstand
GWhen children have the Dupper AhandG  A  G  A  
AWhen you stayed out Gevery night
AThe first time from Gyour parent's sight
AThey started to show Gsome concern
ABut by then Git was too late
AFeel it's time Gto pull away
AShut your ears Gto all they say
ABe yourself, Gyou know it's true
A'Cause in the end Gwhat's left is you
GMother loves Gto be concerned
EmUsing lessons Athat she learnt
GFathers never Aunderstand
GWhen children have the Dupper Ahand
GMother loves Gto be concerned
EmUsing lessons Athat she learnt
GFathers never Aunderstand
GWhen children have the Dupper AhandG  A  G  A
