Counting Upside Down

Fur Patrol

daddy won't like this discussion


think he might find it too much


when he sees what you want to be





something you won't tell your sister


what she don't know she won't miss


when they see what you want to be


see what you could have been





baby won't live with your mama


still she does better than some


when they see what you want to be





you can trade tongues with your brother


it's better than losing your lover


when they see what you want to be


see what you could have been





no way to please her


she goes where you lead her


some days you tease her


but she's counting them upside down





janey leaves you out of pocket


and she's no good for your confidence


you can do better than this one


having your palm read in russian


will not see what you want to see


see what you could've been





no way to leave her


she goes where you lead her


some days you tease her


but she's counting them upside down





daddy won't like this decision


you're gonna be causing some friction


all of your records are broken


it doesn't say much for your confidante





no way to please her


she goes where you lead her


some days you tease her


no way to please her


no way to please her


she goes where you lead her


some days you tease her


but she's counting them upside down
