lyrics

(10) BALLS ON THE ROOF
we call his house on Saturday
say, "hey going to work today?"
silence on his end of the line
oh no we don't wanna hear him whine
are you home?
I guess so
are you coming over?
I guess so
are you awake?
I guess so
are you alive?
I guess so
spends his time sweeping the floor
down at the local bagel store
on Saturday his clothes are rags
so in school he won't look like the dirtbags
are you home?
I guess so
are you coming over?
I guess so
are you awake?
I guess so
are you alive?
I guess so
by the full moon
we have seen his room
and we have seen his rowing machine
sure he's white but he's got soul
we didn't write "Losing All Control"
his parents are a groovy pair
he and his friends go to the fair
his mom's voice becomes a squeal
while dad drives the pimp mobile
are you home?
I guess so
are you coming over?
I guess so
are you awake?
I guess so
are you alive?
I guess so
are you here?
are you Chris?
ahhhhhh....
