vance gilbert - honeysuckle fences lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i don’t really like karate
i don’t wanna hit n0body
all this talk of self+defense
i’d rather try to talk some sense

[verse 2]
there’s a boy i know in homeroom
other boys make fun of him
he’d rather sing with the girls in chorus
then hang out with the boys in gym

[verse 3]
i didn’t understand the reason
when he passed me the other day
why his lips and nose were bleedin’
why three boys ran the other way

[bridge]
so i followed them where they were runnin’
to a corner of the school playground
where the honeysuckle climbs the fences
where there’s n0body else around

[verse 4]
i politely asked them why they did it
i told them that it didn’t seem fair
he always helped me out in algebra
that’s what a fist came through the air
[verse 5]
that punch caught me on my shoulder
i never had a chance to run
three bigger boys just started swingin’
three bigger boys against just one

[concertina solo]

[verse 6]
i’m sorry that i tore my jacket
when i made the first boy slip
i’m sorry that the second one’s t++th
found their way through his bottom lip

[verse 7]
never meant to make the third one
pee his brand new khaki pants
curled up in a ball before me
i’m sorry ’bout that circumstance

[bridge]
i don’t mind this week’s detention
i look out where my schoolmates play
see the singin’ boy head high walkin’
see the other boys clear the way
[outro]
i don’t really like karate
