Acting So Bad

歌詞

And your mother is a fundamentalist She’s a pop culture queen Still you found your way to pregnancy Before you found 17 And your father is a businessman The kind that flies on planes And you hid the liquor everywhere You went to such great pains And your eldest sister is a married lady Yeah, but she can’t understand And your closest sister is angry Yeah, you’ve felt her heavy hand And you thwarted your education By the bottle and the bed You even spent a night in jail Yeah, your nose and face were red So you called the preacher, faithfully What a brilliant political move Your parents heard of your repentance Yeah, before they heard your hooves And now you’re so pleased with this happy ending With things all on the smooth That you go back to that lurid lounge And get back in the groove And maybe I should apologize For not feeling a bit sad To see someone in this family Other than me Acting so bad, bad, bad
