welcome home,
give me your lunchbox
place it on the kitchen counter
how was your day
give me a tally
of the times you said your name

did your best friend
stay your best friend
and if not get over him
i’m your mom
and i’m your father
i’m all that
you need today 

if you don’t wanna go to school
well, i’m so cool, i’ll let you stay
and if you’re lonely, i can love you
i’ll neosporin wounds away

your teacher called
to say you’re having a rough time
so what is wrong?
i want to help, please help me, oh

so what’s his name?
if he’s a bully, what’s his address?
i got all day.
you just sit down, i’ll make a snack first.

let’s go through, 
i’ll get some paper
long division met its match
it’s not so bad beside a buddy
i am here to help you out

if you stutter,
i won’t blame you,
i had similar mistakes
it’s not so bad when i’m beside you
draw a picture, keep me safe

and if the gravel turns to lava
and the playground seems to burn
come back home, grab your pajamas
tomorrow you’ll go back and learn

i was in school, and i get it,
many, many moons ago
but i made it, and i made you,
and i promise you won’t get hurt
as long as i’m around
(as long as i’m around)

about this bully, what’s his parents’ names
and astro-sign?
i swear to care for you as 
long as mother sun’s alive
you are the proof of all
the pain, and all that i’ve worked for
and you deserve the kind of life
that no one can afford

so did you eat all of your food?
and could you clean up your bedroom?
i’ve loved you since the day you came
i wish the world would do the same
