Sometimes, it's not enough
You start that crying and you empty the stuff
We try, we try, to make you happy, it's true
Yes, you are crazy and we know it's true
To the point that we don't know what to do
We nod and listen, smile and grin for you
You see, all the kids and horns like to dance
Good times aren't so special when you're
Frown on the past
We are your mom and papa's nightmares
We dance for you to wash away your cares
Crackin' smiles even when we're sad
That's just the way goes in a ska band
Yeah, kick the beat so you can grind on the floor
Something stinky, smells so stanky, oh no
You best step back, this ain't no joke, it's me
Breakin' hearts when we don't know
Which way a heart's supposes to go
We see your frown, I bet you smell that now, it's me
You see, all the kids and horns like to dance
Good times aren't so special when you're
Frown on the past
We are your mom and papa's nightmares
We dance for you to wash away your cares
Crackin' smiles even when we're sad
That's just the way goes in a ska band
Okay
You don't care
Run to me with tears
You say that it's not fair
We live
For your happiness
I would have never thought
Kindness would lead to this
We live in such a dirty world
Times are changing, people pushing
You and me
Have got a lot to learn
It's all for you
So everybody, let's sing tonight
Do it for the kids, do it right
We are your mom and papa's nightmares
We dance for you to wash away your cares
Crackin' smiles even when we're sad
That's just the way goes in a ska band
We are your mom and papa's nightmares
We dance for you to wash away your cares
Crackin' smiles even when we're sad
That's just the way goes in a ska band
For you, and you, for you, and you, for you, and you
For you, and you, for you, and you, for you, and you
Yow!
