Frog On My Toe — текст песни (Tori Amos)

Poppa I know
There`s a frog on my toe
Maybe I`ll call him Jethro
Maybe I`ll grow up to be
As wise and as good as he
And maybe I`ll come back
After you`re long gone

Poppa I`m sure
The worms have eaten you now
And Jethro`s been on some Frenchy`s plate
Long ago
Now I`m pretty sure
That I listen to every word
`Cause you`re still here
Telling me still

Slap them boys when they`re naughty
Make them crawl, make you haughty
Make you strong, little girl
You paint them toes the reddish colour
And you know one day
You`re gonna be bigger than a flea
You`re gonna be bigger than that old
Poison ivy tree

Now I`m pretty sure
That I think you`d come and visit
And talk sometimes
Kind of like Gidget and
A funny little chance
Like an Indian Brave
He said We all grew fat
When the white man came
But one day girl
You`re gonna learn to make them crawl
Make them grow tall
But have the grace
To be a lady with disgrace
And you fry them `taters
And you make them with ladies hands
I know you`re my pappy`s baby
