It sounded like an C5earthquake
It didn't A5last long
Because I C5stopped it
I grabbed a B5rag doll
Stuck some little Bb5pins in it
Now we're a A5family
And we're alC5right now

I got a A5backyard with nothing C5in it

[Verse 1]

A5 C5

We started living in an old house

A5 C5

My ma gave birth and we were checking it out

It was a baby boy

So we bought him a toy

It was a ray gun

And it was 1981

We named him "Baby"

He had a toothache

He started crying

It sounded like an earthquake

It didn't last long

Because I stopped it

I grabbed a rag doll

Bb5

Stuck some little pins in it

Now we're a family

And we're alright now

We got money and a little place

To fight now

We don't know you

And we don't owe you

But if you see us around

Bb5

I got something else to show you

Then put it in a short letter

We keep warm

But there's just something wrong with ya

Just feel that you're the hardest little button to button

A5 C5

I had opinions that didn't matter

A5 C5

I had a brain that felt like pancake batter

I got a backyard with nothing in it

Except a stick, a dog

And a box with something in it
