The dogwood’s in bloom
|
Take off your shoes
|
You cannot choose your family, oh
|
There’s nothing we can do
|
But screw
|
And booze and amphetamines, oh
|
In the springtime, in the house
|
I was determined to work it out
|
Oh, in the springtime, in the house
|
The neighbors heard us scream and shout
|
And somewhere a screw got loose along the way
|
And your manners have gone away
|
And I believe that there will come a day
|
I believe that you will chase me away
|
So they can’t prove
|
Love is not enough for you
|
There’s nothing I can do
|
'Cause I fell in love with you
|
In the springtime, in the house
|
I was determined to work it out
|
Oh, in the springtime, in the house
|
I never told you I had my doubts
|
And somewhere a screw got loose along the way
|
And our manners have gone away
|
And I believe that there will come a day
|
I believe that you will chase me away
|
So that you can prove
|
Love is not enough for you
|
You thought I was your muse
|
But all along it was you
|
And the dogwood’s in bloom
|
There’s nothing we can do
|
But screw, oh |
