v.1. I yelled at my kid again today.
Exploded in that highly wound up way.
Friends say I spoil him,
That he really can annoy.
You see the worst in other people’s, so they say.
It’s the second time in just as many days.
I yelled at my kid again today.

Chorus:
And he’s lovely. And he loves me.
And I love to have him with me,
And the world to float on by.
And I love him, and enjoy him.
And we get on well together, he and I.

v.2. I hit my kid. My worst of fears.
And didn’t notice ‘til I saw his tears.
I’m jealous of the lazy.
Their spare time drives me crazy.
There’s some things you can’t see if you’re too near.
It’s the second time in just as many years,
I hit my kid. My worst of fears.
Chorus:
