Zodiac Blues

Better sit down, kids
I'll tell you why, kids
You might not understand, kids
But give it a try, kids

Now, how should I put this
I've got something to say
Your mother is staying
But I'm going away

Say your prayers before you go to bed
Make sure you get yourself to school on time
I know you'll do the things your mother asks
She's gonna need you most to stay in line

Keep in mind that your mother's gonna need
You help a whole lot more than she ever did before
No more fights over little things because
I won't be here to stop them, anymore

I know you don't want this
Neither do we
But, sometimes things happen
That we can't foresee
