Lyrics

[Verse 1] Strings attached, fake eyelashes Broke apart the piggy bank for petty cash Sensitive sister, blush and don't stare Watch the children squabblin' in the square Tip my hat, low windows Once I saw you naked, there was nothing to show Piano plays, sonata tempo Of all the girls in our class she's the most refined [Chorus] I'd like to be there in the morning when you wake up May be pipe dreams, but come Easter we could pack up I'd like to be there in the morning when you wake up May be pipe dreams, but come Easter we could pack up [Verse 2] I'd like to show up at your doorstep Wearing the winter tie my neighbor tied And meet your family, compliment cookin' Drink the beer that your uncles are brewin' Flat out refused to take that job Just because i'm poor don't mean I can't be a snob Strawberry hair, fair freckled skin Waiting like a creep outside cotillion Shy expression, shawl on her shoulders Bought this house with money that your grandfather stole Much too young, save imagination Ruined an elegant girl's reputation [Chorus] I'd like to be there in the morning when you wake up May be pipe dreams, but come Easter we could pack up [Bridge] Whoa, whoa Whoa, oh Whoa, whoa Whoa, oh Whoa, whoa Whoa, oh Whoa, whoa Whoa, oh [Verse 3] And when they ask me my occupation I'm a prayin' man working on my patience I got no preference, politic party Parents take away my car keys Mass lets out, rollin' smokes for trades Drink my weight in coffee at the penny arcade Rows of shoes, shelves of jewelry Mama's dyeing her hair in the vanity Daddy's watch too tight, try silver spoon for size Harder than a needle through a camel's eye Folks gather 'round the table, find their place Boy if that girl don't have expensive tastes
