[00:00:00] Can Of Worms - Squeeze

[00:00:19] She was married and then divorced

[00:00:23] Things seemed to happen that way

[00:00:27] The children were confused sometimes theyd fight

[00:00:32] Sitting in their toys and games

[00:00:39] To them she's mother and I am their friend

[00:00:43] Who sits with them on his lap

[00:00:48] And sleeps on the sofa on alternate weekends

[00:00:52] No substitute for their dad

[00:00:59] She's a very good mum

[00:01:01] As she tries to explain

[00:01:03] Everything that she can

[00:01:05] But a childs mind is sharp

[00:01:08] They imagine the worst

[00:01:10] Sometimes can't understand

[00:01:13] That theres so much to learn

[00:01:15] When you open a can of worms

[00:01:27] So to the park to play on the swings

[00:01:31] To give their mother a break

[00:01:35] When I saw their father walking down the path

[00:01:40] Heading down towards the gate

[00:01:47] I froze on the spot heart in my throat

[00:01:51] I hoped hed not see us there

[00:01:56] He soon disappeared and the kids on the slide

[00:02:01] Were happy and unaware

[00:02:08] She's a very good mum

[00:02:10] And she tries to explain

[00:02:12] Everything that she can

[00:02:14] But a child's mind is sharp

[00:02:16] They imagine the wors

[00:02:18] Sometimes can't understand

[00:02:21] That there's so much to learn

[00:02:23] When you open a can of worms

[00:02:49] I read the papers and made scrambled eggs

[00:02:54] The kids got ready to leave

[00:02:58] Their father was taking them for the weekend

[00:03:02] With pocket money and sweets

[00:03:09] They were excited as they waved goodbye

[00:03:14] And I went straight back to bed

[00:03:18] Their mother stood and watched as they drove away

[00:03:23] Standing on the front door step

[00:03:29] She's a very good mum

[00:03:31] And she tries to explain

[00:03:34] Everything that she can

[00:03:36] But a child's mind is sharp

[00:03:38] They imagine the wors

[00:03:40] Sometimes can't understand

[00:03:43] That there's so much to learn

[00:03:57] She's a very good mum

[00:03:59] And she tries to explain

[00:04:01] Everything that she can
