Heres your lunch money
You better hurry for the old school bus
Did you clean your teeth this morning
I know you hate it when I start to fuss
Heres the letter for your teacher
Your dinners in the freezer
Five minutes in the microwave
Dont wait for me this evening
Im probably working late
Your dad is coming over
With his new lover
And I dont wanna be around
So Im gonna do some shopping
Ill buy you those stockings
Ill be back in half an hour
Oh its my anticipation
Thered be a confrontation
I know how much it breaks your heart
Lets be pleased for him--hes trying
To make a brand new start
Its not heaven but its all weve got
You have to understand it
I wanted ozzie and harriet
With a picket fence around it
But that was all an illusion
Now were living in reality
But were gonna have a happy ending--you and me
Well spend the weekend playing
I hope it wont be raining
When we go to the game with dan
I know you think hes boring
But this time dont ignore him
Wont you give him half a chance
No hes not as fun as dad
But theres good as well as bad
In hanging on to yesterday
Im not trying to replace him
Guess Im really trying to say
Its not heaven but its all weve got
You have to understand it
I wanted ozzie and harriet
With a picket fence around it
But that was all an illusion
Now were living in reality
But were gonna have a happy ending--you and me
Together I know well survive
Rebuild our lives together
One day at a time
Its not heaven but its all weve got
You have to understand it
I wanted ozzie and harriet
With a picket fence around it
But that was all an illusion
Now were living in reality
But theres gonna be a happy ending
Wait and see
Yes theres gonna be a happy ending
For you and me
You better hurry for the old school bus
