Oh Adrien, The

Stay where you

You cut your h

(You cut your hair)
You climbed th

ome down from
there
(You cut your hair)
Said you wante

| Momma wants you to be a doctor so she can tell your friends and take your father
| Oh Adrien, give up and you wanted a dog
| On Saturday in the park and you think you felt it all
| Safe on the ways on the ways on the weather
you tell your mom to take forever
