I Knew Your Mother
I knew your mother, let me be clear
We were lovers before you got here
So don't forget that I knew her when
Love was the means and you were the end
I still remember somebody who
Was amazing and crazy and somewhat like you
I fell for your mother, love made me a fool
We were into each other till it came off the spool
Folks choose their parents, some Buddhists say
So maybe you picked us and we were your way
In the Biblical sense I knew your mom

Und it wasn't all Stürm and it wasn't all Drang (there was some calm)
Having a father is the most dangerous game
And when dad takes a powder it's more than a shame
But I knew your mother and your mother knew me
And as long as it lasted was how long it could be
Today is your birthday and if truth be told
It has to be said now we're both a bit older
Yeah, happy birthday, but I want to be clear
I loved your mother and that's why you're here
