Five & Dime - Nits

I am waiting in the hospital

With my mother’s eyes

There’s a song on the radio

That I don’t wanna hear

No, I don’t wanna hear

I’m turning pages of a magazine

With my father’s hand

There are pictures in the magazine

That I don’t understand

No, I don’t understand

Come back to the Five and Dime

Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean

I am looking with my mother’s eyes

I’m seeing things I’ve never seen

Things that I have never seen

No, I don’t wanna listen

And I don’t wanna try

I am waiting in the hospital

With my mother’s eyes
