want to kill this man but he turned around and ran.
I´ll kill him with karate that I learned in Japan.
He wouldn´t see my face. I wouldn´t leave a trace.
I wouldn´t use a bullet cause a bullet´s a disgrace.

Aw, mom, I never thought that I was a murdering man
But tonight I´m on my way.

There´s this drawer that I know in a house up the road
That´s full of things that are easily sold.
When they go out of town I could go and snoop around
And make myself rich off the things that I found.

Aw, mom, I never thought that I was a stealing man
But tonight I´m on my way.

I was sitting on the bleacher staring at the speaker,
Reading his lips but I could not understand.
So I opened up my ears and clearly I could hear
This detailed story all about a grain of sand.

Aw, mom, I always dreamt of being a good listener
So tonight I´m on my way.

There´s this kid you gotta meet. He lives across the street.
He´s got spirit and heart. We´re ten years apart.
He is up for anything. He can hang with anyone.
He still likes the things we used to think were fun.

Aw, mom, I never thought that I could have a friend
But tonight I´m on my way.

I´m in love with someone who´s as pretty as a flower.
Her life give me power so I´m buyin´ her a ring.
She makes hats with her hands. She is such an artist.
I´m her biggest fan and I´m teaching her to sing

Aw, mom, I never thought that I could love no one
But tonight I´m on my way.
