Grandmother Song
Vienna Teng

Oh girl you think you got timenYou're gonna get 'round to it way down the linenBut one step, two step, you fall behindnSo you better have a good plannOh girl you think you got timenYou're gonna get 'round to it way down the linenBut I'm telling you no matter what you have in mindnYou're still gonna need a mannnTake it from your grandmother I've been 'roundnNo one's gonna take care of younIn that world you've got yourself intonAll the good boys, oh baby they're in grad schoolnnOh girl your story's all wrongnYour dream'll be a nightmare before too longnTurning thirty and still trying to sing your songsnCome on who do you think you arenOh girl it's too heavy a loadnYour mama and your baba they are worried soulsnHow you gonna raise a family when you're on the roadnWith some tattooed boy with a guitarnnTake it from your grandmother I've been 'roundnThis music career isn't real lifenIt won't see you through to when you're sixty-fivenWhen the tide turns you won't survivenYou'll sit on the banks and crynnOh girl you've never know warnWhen they come in the night and knock on the doornYou can go from the high life to dirty poornAnd lose everything you knewnBut the one thing they can't take away from younIs your mind and the education you've been throughnO you find a man who understands that toonMake sure that he stays truenGives respect where its duenMake sure he knows what he's got in younnBecause a woman isn't just for cooking mealsnScrubbing floors, making babiesnA woman's got ambitions same as he doesnMaybe morenWhen the sirens wailed and the bombs fellnWe ran from the schoolyard into hellnAnd what we could've been time will never telln'cause we never had your chancesnThe advantages that you've been handednnTake it from your grandmother I've been 'round
