The Sprinkler - Sicko

Looking out my window

I see some old friends riding down the street

On the bikes we used to ghostride on the playground

But I broke my bike last fall

And my parents were appalled

At my lack of respect for personal property

Sitting in the basement

Eating Peanut Butter Captain Crunch

Watching «Flipper» and building models

But that stuff wears out faster than my All-stars

Lock myself in my bedroom and play with my Hot Wheels Cars

Layin' in the back yard

Playin' like a rock star

Wish that I could forget

Running through the sprinkler

Until I’m soaking wet

I forget whatever happened to

Me and all my white-trash friends

They got sick of me or I grew out of them

But they must have felt betrayed

When I stopped seeing things their way

Lost all interest in the stupid plans we made

But I can still see them skating down the steepest hills

We were all fearless and our parents feared the doctor’s bills

Just having fun was our excuse

Just being cool was the truth

Don’t try to stop us 'cause it ain’t no use…

Layin' in the back yard

Playin' like a rock star

Wish that I could forget

Running through the sprinkler

Until I’m soaking wet

I forget, what you said, not yet
