That Handsome Devil - Miss America lyrics

Tommy stutters comically When he says a lot of things Mommy does the shopping Daddy's digging through the laundry bins He likes to try on Mommy's things With his hair up in her bobby pins The neighbor's very neighborly Occasionally taking peeks at his niece While she takes a pee I heard the plumbers found a finger when They fixed the basement leak So pick up the phone Fix up your lawn Turn the TV on There's nothing wrong Middle America, I love you Old Mister Wilkinson k**ed a man Drunk from the bar Hit him with the front of his car Drug him so far There was nothing but parts For hundreds of yards Those big damn power lines Will drive you out your mind Edna sits in the shower sometimes For hours and cries Whenever she forgets to tell Howard goodbye So pick up the phone Fix up your lawn Turn the TV on There's nothing wrong Middle America, I love you Spoken softly but Mommy's body shook Dropped the coffee cup I guess the coffee wasn't strong enough Becca was a quiet girl Behind the wheel With a mouth full of diet pills A couple beers And some stuff for your sinuses Dancing in the fire Smashing all of the appliances The psychiatrist said the Zoloft had some side effects So pick up the phone Fix up your lawn Turn the TV on There's nothing wrong Middle America, we love you Pick up your phone Fix up your lawn Turn the TV on There's nothing wrong Miss America, we love you (There are people who sit and wait their lives away on the promise of a dream that will not come. They are the sheep but here are also many, many more like us. We will not be pushed around.)
