Mind Your Manners (Lyrics & Music by Steve Laurie: 7/27/05)

She took away my rhythm and left me with the blues
I thought she was a rock but she left me rolling through
She couldn’t look me in the eye; left without saying goodbye
Girl, you got no manners, so don’t be coming back again

Someone took my paper and they poured my coffee cold
Cut me off in traffic and gave me bread with mold
But I know it’s just a matter of time, til your mama smacks your behind
And says, boy, you got no manners and you won’t be coming back again

They’re always laughing at me when my back is turned
Poking fun at me all day long

She took the L from love and put it on my forehead
Didn’t feed my goldfish , now poor old Henry’s dead
Left the place in a mess; no regard for human kindness
Girl, you got no manners, so don’t be coming back again

Nothing can amaze me in this selfish world
Maybe I’m just crazy, loopity loo

You took a bite of food and chewed mouth open wide
You never stop talking about yourself and life
But I know it’s just a matter of time
Til you mama puts you in line
And says, boy, you got no manners and you won’t be coming back again
