Rolling around in fiberglass
Hiding from the monsters that appear
When Uncle Bill comes over
And the beer
Y los cigarros
Wondering if Mommy will pick up
Or if the operator will even have her number

This is about my time as a little girl. I was really carefree but terrified and I had already learned the meaning of a broken promise.
