Sit Down

Your mama didn't like me

But that was alright with me

Cause it was me whispering in your ear at night

Just once or twice a year

We would have to endure

Each other's company

Sit down and smile you said

Talk about books you read

I'll be in the other room reading the cartoons

Come on this will be fun,

Six months 'til the next one

Just do this for me please

Sit down across from her,

Lips pursed, eyes on the silver

She counted it before I came

Pull out my Chanel purse

Hand over a gift to her

Hand touch just for a second

Would have thought I had brought out a weapon

We laugh and smile on time

Scenes written by a playwright who left his pencil on the table

Unfinished sentences spoken, five minutes till our spirits broken

She looks me up and down

He tells her to hide her frown

Did you hear about Caroline?

She just moved back from the city

She left her job to come back home

Oh darling do you remember ?

Those sweet days in December,

When you two were together

Sit down and smile you said

Talk about books you read

I'll be in the other room reading the cartoons

Come on this will be fun,

Six months 'til the next one

Just do this for me please

Sit down and smile you said

Talk about books you read

I'll be in the other room reading the cartoons

Come on this will be fun,

Six months 'til the next one

Just do this for me please
