For Pete’s Sake
© ASCAP Marialaina DiFalco
Verse
Fightin’, cursin’, breaking rules,
seems suddenly your little boy’s not the boy you knew
Turnin’ thirteen years in June
He doesn’t care ‘bout anything at home or in school
Considered every reason but the one that’s the truth
Chorus
For Pete’s Sake,
the time for change is starting now
you've made mistakes,
but still denying how
all your booze and shoutin’
has him actin’ out in rage
You have to face it, turn it around
make him feel without a doubt
he means everything, so do what it takes
For Pete’s Sake
Verse
A single parent with two jobs,
don't see no shame in drinking to get the stress gone,
Though the anger comes on strong,
and you call him names, you never hit, so you can't be the cause
Besides, he says he's good
after you buy him what he wants
Chorus
Bridge
Oh you can rationalize you did no wrong,
but way down deep you know though you don’t see the marks,
doesn’t mean you've done no harm
Chorus
Outro
Fightin’, cursin’, breakin’ rules
seems suddenly your little boy’s not the boy you knew
