Stupid Kid (2006 Remaster)

Stupid Kid - Caedmon's Call

I think this place is swell

There's much familiar here

I get my laundry done

And I get home cooked meals

And when I'm feeling tired

I can turn off all the lights

Ignore the knocking on the door

Pretend I'm not alive

But Daddy it's Saturday

And I don't want to go outside

And mow the grass today

So would you love me just as much

If I was just your stupid kid

So would you love me just as much

If I was just your stupid kid

They tell me that I'm bright

Sometimes I think they're right

But I guess I'll never know

'Cause I won't go outside

Some days it's just so hot

And others it's so cold

Too much exposure to the sun

Would just make me look old

Well isn't this Saturday

And I don't want to go outside

And mow the grass today

So would you love me just as much

If I was just your stupid kid

So would you love me just as much

If I was just your stupid kid

Isn't this Saturday

It sure feels like Saturday

So wake me Saturday

Daddy it's Saturday

And my mind wanders off

To things I've never seen

Are these walls higher than

The cost of opportunity

I'm too big for my bed

And I've outgrown my shoes

But my fear of leaving

Is the one thing I just can't lose

Daddy it's Saturday

I don't want to go outside

And mow the grass today

So would you love me just as much

If I never got a job

If I never left your house

Would I be of use to you

If I never amount to much more

Than just your stupid kid

Would I love me just as much

If I was just your stupid kid
