lirik lagu will wood - unnamed song (just like my parents)

don’t take the following words as reverence for tradition
i’ve learned to pick my battles by losing most i’ve fought
the more mores subverted, the more i sense i’m missing
and i’ll always do it my way, even if it’s just the same way i was taught
i’ll bring home the bread, and you’ll stay home and bake it
weeding out the garden where the milestones gather moss
clean and make the bed, and give the care i’m taking
not because it’s what expected, but because it’s what you want

i wanna be just like my parents when i was born
oh can we be just like my parents?

i know you don’t want kids, but think about a daughter
we can name her gwendolyn, like my mom would have called me
i’m not sure yet myself, but i learned from a good father
i mean sure, they messed me up. but i think that’s just the gig
maybe it’s just some hormones that come in your late twenties
i’ve laid a lot of women, now i’d like to just lay down
and marriage always scared me, but i’d like to have a last love
and love can last i know it. yeah, i’ve seen it around

why can’t we be just like my parents when i was young?
imagine me, just like my parents. yeah, right

so tongue out of my cheek now, i’m done pulling faces
iconoclasm wanes, my cynicism tires
the point is it sounds kind of nice, although i might be mistaken
i mean, well, what the f~ck do i know about the rest of my whole life?
but now we’re kissing before brushing, smile with our whole faces
if you want a hyphen last name i guess i don’t mind the cadence
i’ve seen home videos, i was there back in the 80’s
and if i’m just them, and they back then could do it, why can’t i?
just like my parents
imagine me, just like my parents

now if we grow old together and you visit my headstone
assuming that i die first (which is fair), assuming i don’t leave
close enough to forever, i guess, to prove what i hope
i mean, otherwise how am i to believe?
