all our exes live in texas - childhood home lyrics
[verse 1]
in an old fibro house
on an almost quiet street
we learnt how to bowl and bat
and we learned to find our feet
[pre-chorus 1]
i wonder if they dug up our pets
when they cut into the ground
and if you can’t still call on the neighbours
or do fences surround?
[verse 2]
i am sure my oldest friend (ah ah-ah, ah, ah-ah ah)
still lives around the bend (ooh ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
i wish i’d kept in touch (ah ah-ah, ah, ah-ah ah)
i still remember her phone number
[pre-chorus 2]
and the boy across the road
who called me a fruitcake when he saw
me dance to britney spears in the mirror
i’d never given anyone the finger before
[chorus]
oh, i wish i’d known
the chance to show you my childhood home
[verse 3]
one sunny summer day (in the afternoon)
my mother cloaked our house (on that quiet street)
in bright purple paint (ah ah-ah, ah, ah-ah ah)
and dad didn’t notice for a week
[pre-chorus 3]
out the back, where the snowdrops grew
and the gr-ss got high as your knees
children, face the threat of dinner on the back step
if you forgot your qs and ps
[chorus]
oh, i wish i’d known
the chance to show you my childhood home
[bridge]
ooh ooh ooh-ooh, ooh ooh, ooh
ooh ooh, ooh…
maybe in my twilight years, i’ll come
make a home here when the battle’s won
only hope i have found someone by then…
[outro]
in an old fibro house
on an almost quiet street…
