Muppet Babies

next time your parents fight i'll meet you on the roof
i'll be there when u need me when u see me that's the proof
every time you're feeling lonely like you haven't got a friend

if you feelin disrespected then your honor i'll defend
everybody's at a party and i'm left all to my lonesome
you'll suddenly appear and say hey why don't we bone some?
when that guy gives you that bloody nose i'll beat him to the punch
when i'm ostracized bc of size you'll sit with me at lunch
and when they call me fat and fag you'll kick them in the balls
and when i'm feeling like a freak you'll tell them you're appalled
speak so highly can't deny the opinions that you hold
not only do i love you now i'll do it when we're old
let's live another life where we're always side by side
let's hold each other's hands until the day we die
every morning go exploring maybe find a stegosaurus
build a treehouse in a forest and hope everyone ignores us

hook

let's be muppet babies
let's grow up in the 80's

when it's girls ask to boys i won't have to wait to skate
other kids would be amazed like how did they get so brave
what are they doing in the basement bet they been to all the bases
and when i get pissed ur the one i run away with
live right next to each other we'll be speaking like spies
flash light morse code is a mode we devised
walkie talkies then phones never stop communication
discussin every topic there's no stop to conversation
fights won't be these obstacles impossible to avoid
we're not reeling from relationships that made us feel destroyed
we'll actually be people not a bunch of people problems
we'll actually be prepared for life and always carry condoms
of course i'll be ur clarence when your parents get divorced
help me deal with dad's drinking so it won't become my course
all the traumas upon us will be gone in a flash
we'll leave it in the past kick back and relax

first french kiss is with someone that i love
not the girl that blew the bully that was known the push and shove
experiment in merriment no embarrassment when we mate
we won't ever need a date our calendars correlate
when i move to strange locales you're the gal that's going with
so i'm never seen as stranger or a drifter that's adrift
have careers and we'll encourage so we won't be lazy loafs
have diplomas and a focus so we won't be crazy broke
i won't need to overeat never start to slur my speech
there won't be an empty hole to fill you'll be my puzzle piece
we won't need donuts or drugs all of our holes will be plugged
broken mugs become hugs and nugs become snugs
maybe our problems were prerequisites for the life we love today
maybe pain shapes the best of us the parts that aren't so lame
we need failure and rejection maybe pain is in the planning
i'd rather be muppet babies shhh here comes the nanny

let's be muppet babies
grow up in the 80's
we'll always be together
always saying samesies
i won't worry about the ladies
you won't worry about the fellas
we'll never have to fake it
we'll make everybody jealous
