Mama's Graceful Child

This is what you look like when you fall on your face
on the concrete at school
(obviously he's my child)

and then your mom takes you in the car to go get weighed in for football,
but the guy that's supposed to weigh you stops answering his phone,  
and the coach can't get ahold of him
and your mom just drives
around and around and around town.
Then she just parks in a parking lot for awhile.
Then she goes and gets a Starbucks
because she doesn't dare eat in front of you
when you might be getting weighed
and then she just drives home
because it's obvious that the fucking guy
is never going to answer his phone and you wake up
and you're right back where you started from!
