Silver Spoon Lyrics - Erin LeCount

1 I'll watch and learn from afar

2 I'll pull the weeds from my heart and

3 Put lipstick on for your family party

4 In the garden

5 I stare

6 At the house you were brought up in

7 All the photographs and door frames are wooden

8 I wish I'd known you when you were younger

9 Before lovers

10 Cause I've changed my accent

11 And I gave a false name

12 I hope I throw a party

13 In a house of my own some day

14 When you were a kid

15 You'd come in through the back gate

16 Your folks left a light on

17 In case you get home late

18 And I bet you grew up

19 Eating at the table

20 Fed love from silver spoons

21 Reasons to be grateful

22 You ask about kids

23 I don't know if I'm able

24 I bet you grew up

25 Being asked how your day was

26 I bet you grew up

27 Grazing your knees

28 But the fall wasn't fatal

29 Like it was for me

30 We're the product of love

31 That we do not receive

32 I'll corrupt every branch

33 Of this family tree

34 I spilt the good wine

35 I panicked

36 A disaster

37 A knee jerk reaction

38 Then everyone around us starts laughing

39 Is that how it's meant to happen?

40 Your mother said

41 I'm always welcome

42 To visit

43 To take second helpings

44 I said no thanks

45 I'm so full on resentment

46 That I learned to fend for myself but

47 You were sweet

48 I got mean

49 And when we fight

50 I refuse to eat

51 You're sensible

52 I'm hating it

53 What a good job

54 That your mother did

55 You were kind

56 I was cruel

57 In another life

58 Maybe I was you

59 And I grew up

60 Into something good

61 Somebody who could swallow love

62 I bet you grew up

63 Eating at the table

64 Fed love from silver spoons

65 Reasons to be grateful

66 You ask about kids

67 I don't know if I'm able

68 I bet you grew up

69 Being asked how your day was

70 I bet you grew up

71 Grazing your knees

72 But the fall wasn't fatal

73 Like it was for me

74 We're the product of love

75 That we do not receive

76 I'll corrupt every branch

77 Of this family tree

78 Silver spoons

79 And butter knives

80 Living hand to mouth

81 I'm getting by

82 Your love is spreading thin

83 But my medicine goes down alright

84 Silver spoons

85 And butter knives

86 Living hand to mouth

87 I'm getting by

88 Your love is spreading thin

89 But my medicine goes down alright

90 Silver spoons

91 And butter knives

92 Living hand to mouth

93 I'm getting by

94 Your love is spreading thin

95 But my medicine goes down alright

96 Silver spoons

97 And butter knives

98 Living hand to mouth

99 I'm getting by

100 Just feed me love and give it time

101 Oh maybe in another life
