Saturday Mornings With You
Shannon Murray
I'd like to watch Saturday morning cartoons with you again
You can wear your Batman pjs, and you can wear that smile
We'll wrap up in one of those old ratty blankets and scream at the television screen
Cowabunga it's Saturday mornings with you
I'm remembering all those long car rides when we'd entertain
Ten hours of Hakuna Matata until we drove our parents insane
I'm remembering that marshmallow pizza you made on a rainy day
And how I wouldn't try it, but you know I'd eat the whole damn thing
If you were just here today
Little brother I'm missing you little brother I'm missing you now
Because today I kind of feel like my Barbie did
When your G.I. Joe went and ripped off her head
Little brother I'm missing you now little brother I'm missing you
Do you remember playing Atari with me at 3 am with the volume down
Eating Cheese Wiz and chocolate frosting we stole from the kitchen and stashed under your bed
Do you remember watching scary movies on Wed. nights when Mom was out of town
And how we'd lie in the grass with the puppies and their wet kisses and our silly laughter
Little brother I'm missing you little brother I'm missing you now
Because today I kind of feel like my Barbie did
When your G.I. Joe went and ripped off her head
Little brother I'm missing you now little brother I'm missing you
Do you remember the time you chased me around the kitchen with a carving knife
Until mom hauled you off by the ear I don't know who was more scared me or you
Do you remember the time I talked you into helping me with my curve ball
I hit you in the head and the knee and the arm and spent the summer pitching to the wall
Little brother I'm missing you little brother I'm missing you now
Because today I kind of feel like my Barbie did
When your G.I. Joe went and ripped off her head
Little brother I'm missing you now little brother I'm missing you
I'd like to watch Saturday morning cartoons with you again
You can wear your Batman pjs, and you can wear that smile
