Lyrics of Skeletons by Rickie Lee Jones
verse
She was pregnant in May
Now they're on their way
Dashing through the snow
To St. John's, here we go
verse
Well, it could be a boy
It's okay if he's a girl
Oh, these things that grow out of
The things that we give
verse
We should move to the west side
They still believe in things
That give a kid half a chance
verse
When he pulled off the road
Step in a waltz of red moon beams
Said he fit an APB
A robbery nearby
verse
And he'll go for his wallet
And they thought that he was going for a gun
And the cops blew bird away
verse
Some kids like watching Saturday cartoons
Some girls listen to records all day in their rooms
But what do birds leave behind, of the wings that they came with
If a son's in a tree building model planes?
