Me and my brothers playing ColecoVision
We’re rocking Donkey Kong
We’re on a fake leather couch
We’ve got kangaroo shoes on
Those are the shoes with the little pocket for your change
You get it in and then it never would escape
Four o’clock the Coleco goes off
So we can watch Transformers on the idiot box
Four-thirty its ThunderCats ho!
Five o’clock it’s G.I. Joe
Five-thirty it’s meatloaf, no
I don’t wanna eat meatloaf, no
See a can of Tab
Say “Mom, can I have a sip of your Tab?”
She says “Stay away from my Tab!”
Turns around, take a sip, feels like I’ve been stabbed
The soda is filled with hundreds of cigarette butts
My mom laughs til she cries
She says “You little bugger!
You know it serves you right.”
We was raised by the wooden spoon
Mom could beat us if she cleaned the TV room
We was raised by
We was raised by the wooden spoon
Driving to Florida
In a Pontiac 6000 station wagon
Dad’s got one hand on the steering wheel
One hand on his cigarette
One hand smacks my face
Knocks me back into the seat
Is he an X-Man with three hands?
Or does he move at super speed?
We’re on the I-75 for three days
Got the windows rolled up so the cigarette smoke can’t escape
And dad’s been driving for about 90 hours
And we don’t wear seatbelts
So we stand up when we play game boy
The car only stops at Bob’s Big Boy
The car only stops at Bob’s Big Boy
The car only stops at Bob’s Big Boy
The car only stops at Bob’s Big Boy
We was raised by the wooden spoon
Mom could beat us if she cleaned the TV room
We was raised by
We was raised by the wooden spoon
At my parents house photo albums
Me and my brothers, I’m like five they’re like three
Got us posing with cigarettes
In our little hands were backwards stubbies
They didn’t have to put down their smokes
They didn’t have to turn off the Rolling Stones cassette
We didn’t have to do nothing wrong
They just beat us for sh#t they didn’t know about yet
We was raised by the wooden spoon
We was raised by the wooden spoon
We was raised by
We was raised by the wooden spoon
