Testo A Boy Needs a Bike - Jewel
Testo della canzone A Boy Needs a Bike (Jewel), tratta dall'album Picking Up the Pieces
Pop works in the shop 'til late
Mom's on the phone and she's kind of irate
Sally's doing somersaults on the lawn
Pop slams open the front screen door
Just to scare Ma, she says, "What the hell'd you do that for?"
He washes his dirty hands in the sink
Things around the table are kinda rough
Ma says it's Pa, Pa says times are just tough
But me and Sally don't say much of nothin' at all
A garage door light brightens up the night
Pa always works on cars when he gets in a fight
As if he could figure out that woman by workin' on that old car
He said a car can cure any problem at all
'Cause seein' all those parts makes a fight look so small
I wish he'd put me and Sally in the backseat and drive us away
That's when he sits me down, says he's gonna teach me about life
Said a man needs a car and a boy needs a bike
Got my first taste of freedom 'neath the light of the moon
If it were me
I'd have the guts
I'd put to test those bolts and nuts
And ride away
So fast, so far
We put away our tools and go back inside
Mom feels left out and now she's startin' to cry
I wonder if all girls are crazy this way
Wish that Pops would just get a spine
I said, "I know it's kinda little, but you could borrow mine"
He just smiles and said, "Your mom means well, son
You see, most times are good, it's just some that are lean
But love makes up for those times in between"
He got a tear in his eye as he took Mama's hand
Said one day, I'd understand
If it were me
I'd have the guts
I'd put to test those bolts and nuts
And ride away
So fast, so far
Ride away
So fast, so far
Ride
