Tori Amos:Frog On My Toe

poppa I know
there's a frog on my toe
maybe I'll call him Jethro
maybe I'll grow up to be
quite as good as he
and maybe you'll come back
after you're long gone
and poppa I'm sure
the worms have eaten you now
and Jethro's been on some "Frenchy"'s plate long ago
and now I'm pretty sure that I listen to every word
cause I still hear you telling me still
slap them boys when they're naughty
make 'em crawl make you haughty
make strong little girl
you paint them toes that reddish colour
and you know one day
you're gonna be bigger than a flea
you're gonna be bigger than that old poison ivy tree
now I'm pretty sure that I think you come and visit
and talk sometimes kind of like Gidget and
in funny little chants like and Indian Brave
you said we all grew fat when the old white man came
but one day girl
you're gonna learn to make 'em crawl
make 'em grow tall but have the grace
to be a lady with disgrace and
you fry those taters and you make them with lady's
hands and all you're my poppy's baby
