Array ( [sid] => 157551 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => boys with fast cars [time] => 2010-02-17 11:17:41 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Father’s dread the day
When their daughters turn a certain age
Skinny stems transformed into mature flowers
Slipping away into maturity
And too big to rock on Daddy’s knee
In the back of their minds they secretly hope
For age to make them a little bit ugly
To keep away the boys with fast cars

They can hear them coming down the street
The bass thumps hypnotically
Music too loud for old ears
As the engine roars its arrival
They drive away innocence
In their back seats
The only traces left behind
Are the tracks of burnt rubber

They steal away their daughters
With loud music and adolescent charms
Hair that curls and eyes that howl
Love masked in good looks and smiles
For they know the door to a girl’s bedroom
Is unlocked through her heart
And just as fast as they arrive
They are quick to leave

Father’s know the game well
The fresh scent of teen spirit
For in them is the subtle truth
They were once one of them
Before a father they were a boy
On to the next conquest
Found in the passenger seats
Of boys with fast cars
