Bubblegum Lyrics by Anna Bates

2023

[Into]
We used to sit around, in a circle just as kids
Playing bubblegum, bubblegum, in a dish

We where freshly out of 6th grade
Still going to church
Nobody had died
And no one would for sure

Bubblegum, bubblegum, in a dish
How many pieces do you wish?
But, we grew up
Now Johnny does cocaine
Sarah runs a bar
And Jeff forgot his name
Amy sells herself
On the edge of 3rd and main
As for me and you?
Well, we've slowly parted ways

We used to drive around and talk about the lord
Sex before a spouse and what we could explore
We were stupid at 18, thought we kind of knew our way
Then we swore to God that we would never change

[Refrain]
Bubblegum, bubblegum, in a dish
What the hell happened, to all of my friends?
Well, we grew up

Now Johnny lost a kid
Sarah met a man and Jeff no longer lives
Amy has a warrant and I think this is her 5th
As for me and you?
Our relationship has dimmed

We used to look at jobs
Say we'd work in the same place
Talk about the money
That we'd eventually make
We'd all become successful
All it took was wilful heart
We were strong and educated
22 and smart

[Refrain]
Bubblegum, bubblegum, in a dish
People are dying and I still can't get a grip
But, we grew up

Now Johnny is on some meds
Sarah has some wrinkles and we've since buried Jeff
Amy is still in jail, the last time that I checked
As for me and you?
I guess I'll see you when we're dead

[Outro]
Bubblegum, bubblegum, in a dish
How many pieces do you wish?
