Fleas lyrics

[Verse 1]
Father used to say, "You sleep with dogs, the next day
You'll wake at midnight scratching those inevitable fleas"
At ten years old, you listen to what you're told
I never had the itch, I never would

[Verse 2]
Mother had forbidden me to waste away my life
"I want you to have all the things I could never buy you
Don't stop what I've begun, you're my one my only son
Follow what I say, not what I've done"
"Follow what I say, not what I've done"
"Shower, scrub, and shave, cleanly boys don't misbehave
Follow what I say, not what I've done"
