letra de by the way - joe scruggs

it’s monday morning, i’m running late
there’s not a minute to spare
mom calls out, “come on, let’s go!”
as she finishes drying her hair
now i’m in my place with a smile on my face
just thinking about my day
then i think of some things i’m supposed to bring
and that’s when i say, “dear mom

oh, by the way, i need an orange juice can
four cotton b-lls, and six rubber bands
and by the way, i’m an angel for the play
i’m gonna sing and i need some wings”

well, i guess i’ve induced some stress
mom’s smile begins to fade
then she to the kitchen and digs through the trash
for the can from the lemonade
now i start to protest, she’s doing her best
so then i tried to make it right
i say, “i need everything by 8:15
but i don’t need the wings ’til tonight

oh, by the way, i need and orange juice can
if it’s lemonade, will the teacher understand?
and by the way, they’re having meatloaf today
if you don’t mind a bunch, i’m gonna need a lunch”
sometimes i just don’t believe
how resourceful moms can be
she gets the cotton b-lls
and the rubber bands from her vanity
i’ve got a lemonade can
not quite the right brand
but mom says, “it will do”
then we’re out of the door at 7:54
i won’t be late for school

oh, by the way, meatloaf is better than it seems
and for my lunch, mom packed a can of sardines
and for the play, it’s sister’s costume from ballet
i’m gonna sing in her b-tterfly wings
i’m gonna sing in her b-tterfly wings
