Pattycake

[Verse 1]

So they sucked the life out of you

So now what the hell do you do?

(Hey!) So your train ran off of its track

Back when Michael Jackson was black

[Pre-Chorus 1]

What you gonna prove, how you gonna prove it?

There's no need to waste your life, shatter and abuse it

Babe, I'm talking 'bout a time when a dime bag was a dime

No need to dwell upon the here and now, baby

[Chorus]

Let's pretend It's 1978

We're playing pattycake and baker's man

Let's pretend

The popsicles we ate all gave us stomach aches on our neighbor's lawn

[Verse 2]

So you called the chief of police (this is the pig, this is the pig)

And told him what to do

Called the zoo and the justice of peace

And told them what to do

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Sold your house and home, told your boss to screw it

Bought a time machine, grabbed the wheel and flew it

Way, way back into a time when a dime bag was a dime
