Erasers On Pencils Lyrics by Ceili Rain

0

I wrote a "d" when I meant a "b," now I'm stuck with the "d"
(That's what erasers on pencils are for)
I tried to think my thought with "d," but it doesn't come out like me
(That's what erasers on pencils are for)
How come I do this everytime?
I s'poze it's prob'ly not a crime
That don't stop it drivin' me outta my mind
I hate when this happens, I hate when this happens, well
Mama better look here
I made some mistakes, I'm afraid I'll make more
'n she says: "Darlin, when those fears appear
That's what erasers on pencils are for"
I introduced my friend to Bruce, but I called him "Brent"
(That's what erasers on pencils are for)
I'd put the blame on my poor brain, but I don't know where it went
(That's what erasers on pencils are for)
I thought I could but now I know
I'll never be some perfect Joe
But it's so hard to just let go
I hate when this happens, I hate when this happens, well
Mama better look here
I made some mistakes, I'm afraid I'll make more
'n she says: "Darlin, when those fears appear
That's what erasers on pencils are for"
I feel so lowly, so bottom-of-the-bowl-y
So next-to-nearly none
But you won't see me at no pity party
That's a table set for one
Erasing mistakes is supposed to be fun

I've been a loser (That's what erasers on pencils are for)
Been so uptight
I've been so foolish (That's what erasers on pencils are for)
Lo these many days & nights
How come I do this everytime?
Mother, Father this is my crime
I bet it's drivin' you outta your mind
I betcha hate when this happens, you hate when this happens, you say

Darlin' better look here
You made some mistakes, I'm afraid you'll make more
Well I promise, when those fears appear- I will help you
(That's what erasers on pencils are for) I'll be with you
(That's what erasers on pencils are for) I'll forgive you
That's what erasers on pencils are for
