lyrics

You Weren’t So Bad

Your smile is legal now, don’t frown
Show some teeth, don’t look so down
Hold your head up high, have a ball
You weren’t so bad, after all

Your smile is legal now, don’t cry
Let me be that twinkle in your eye
You paid the price, took the fall
But you weren’t so bad, after all

Busted in your high school parking lot
Busted in your college dorm
Then you trusted a narc and you got popped
On the day your son was born
Misdemeanors, felonies, and fines
Paranoia, probationary times
They watched you pee in the lavatory
A gallon of Klean tea, naturally
You had a record before you had me

Your smile is legal now, so get high
It’s okay if you give it another try
Your smile is legal, wake and bake
Your smile is legal, have some cake
Happy birthday, dad, I just had to call -You weren’t so bad, after all

about

John D. Lamb Detroit, Michigan

Lamb spins a tale of love and woe full of true irony and forlorn humor…Lamb has given us a slice of life in which we find common ground, but is anything but commonplace…
