Bryan Scary - The Lessons I Learned lyrics

rate me

-LESSON NUMBER ONE-

Three Little Boys in a wishing well

Are secretly gathering wishes to sell

While our Bobby's asleep

He dreams of his cent in the deep

"Wish I may and wish I might, wish upon a splash

Turn all the people who touch it to ash!"

-MORAL-

Don't be a thief, my little dandelion

These are the lessons I learned, the lessons I learned

-LESSON NUMBER TWO-

With side to side desks in an English class

Side to side students are certain to pass

But our Mrs. Leni, catches a wandering eye

In a flash, an empty desk, and smoke fills the sky

Everyone wonders how she made her pies!

-MORAL-

Don't cheat or lie, my little Avalon

These are the lessons I learned, the lessons I learned

All of those lonely nights mother would rock me to sleep

Smoking a cigarette, crossing her legs in the corner, dark and deep

-LESSONS NUMBER THREE-

Grandmother stands at the side of the street

Opposite Alex can't wait for a treat

But our Bicycle Fleet cuts round the corner to meet

Granny and it takes her apart in a snap

All that remains is her daffodil hat

-MORAL-

Look every way, before you cross the street

These are the lessons I learned, the lessons I learned
