two generation gaps between us,
two parents in one, i know you did your best,
you and the egg timer. you are my father,
you were my mom and dad, i know you did your best you
and the egg timer. see took all your money,
she left a note on the door.
we had t.v. dinners, and we called her a whore.
i hope you're as proud of me like i am of you.
egg timer, you and the egg timer.
two hours of sleep at night,
two full time jobs, i know you did your best,
you and the egg timer. we didn't go go fishing,
and we didn't play ball, i know you did your best,
you and the egg timer. sixty minutes is as far as it
goes, the egg timer. if i want to take an hour to remember
you in the past, i have the egg timer.
i hoe i never have to use it the way you did.
