Your Parents Are Always Right

Starlight Can make anyone uptight Can make anyone see right through the rules To the snow white Light side of the dark night Bright heads how they shine right through the ruse Don't talk to strangers Be home before dark Stay warm and sleep tight Your parents are always right A full moon Can make anyone see strange Can make anyone feel the strain of dues A little moonlight Casts a shadow oh so wide You'd never know when you step into the fire Just sit tight We'll put you right under nightlights We'll prize your secrets out from your blinks and sighs Oh little child You've got a grip like a drowning crowd You've got to listen to what we say out loud Don't talk to strangers Be home before dark Stay warm and sleep tight Your parents are always right

Songwriter Notes
I came up with these lyrics at work and gradually figured out what the song was about afterwards and adjusted the chorus appropriately. Kind of a story song like "the well." Bad 4AM recording.
