Hüsker Dave

Tulpehocken, reclining in a chair and rocking
Ignoring the telephone
Highway-driving, city-limit-road-defying
Nice to go and nice to come home

I don't really consider myself materialistic
But there's some stuff that I like a lot
It's nice to go and nice to come home
It's nice to go and nice to come home

When you're a parent, that means no committing suicide
Fast or slow or young or old
When you're a parent, that means no committing suicide
Goddamn, what a miserable fucking bastard

And so I know
And so I know
And so I know now

Passive aggression, a marvelous tactic
Engrained so much that it's actually automatic
We are highway-driving, we are city-limit-road-defying
Nice to go and nice to come home

I'm ignoring the telephone, you're ignoring the creditors
Haven't done one thing that the many that you said you were
It's nice to go, and it's nice to go
It's nice to have you gone

When you're a parent, that means no committing suicide
Fast or slow or young or old
When you're a parent, that means no committing suicide
Goddamn, what a miserable fucking bastard

And so I know
And so I know
And so I know now
