Hey Dad, Why Did My Friends Explode? Lyrics

Billy, Bobby, Shelly and Sue
they were messing with the voodoo
I pleaded with them
you better leave this thing alone
but they all laughed at me
and they said 'you go home'

Hey dad, why did my friends explode?

I'll never forget that terrible day
a great big explosion blew them away
I took one look it made me gag
the coroner left them in a shopping bag

Hey dad, why did my friends explode?

I'll never forget the terrible day
the devil came, he took Jimmy away
sometimes I laugh, sometimes I cry
it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy

Hey dad, why did my friends explode?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
