lyrics

Hey Mom,
thanks for the treats in my lunch.
Crustless white bread sandwiches
and for the nestle crunch.
All the sweets,
that I'm not supposed to have.
I'm the luckiest kid around,
of course I won't tell Dad.
Yes, I passed my classes
all with flying scores.
Yes, I know you're working
hard at cleaning floors.
But I've got a life that's
filled with open doors.
And hey Mom,
it's all thanks to you.

Hey Mom,
thanks for letting me shave my head.
I know that if Dad finds out
we're as good as dead.
When he screams
it shakes me to my knees,
almost just as loud as my
Best of Ramones cds.
Yes, I drank a little
vodka with my friends.
Yes, I threw it up
and then I crashed Dad's benz.
But I'll work all summer
just to make ammends.
And hey Mom,
don't be mad at me.

Hey Mom,
sorry I didn't call you back.
Boss has worked me to the bone,
and doesn't cut me slack.
But you know
that I'll call you back some day.
Hope Dad lets you leave the house
on this Mother's Day.
I'm alright because you
taught me life's big rules.
Love until you're beaten down,
fighting is for fools.
You're the reason that I
ended up this cool.
And hey Mom
it's all thanks to you.

Car Alarm Party Vancouver, British Columbia

CAR ALARM PARTY sings the melodies of the people lost in the gap between the trendy and the uninterested. A rock four piece based out of East Vancouver, with the raw will of a do-it-yourself attitude, years of performance experience, and an evocative charm, these four oddballs mix punk, rockabilly, folk, and raucous pop with their great gift for storytelling. ... more
