Frog Named Freddy Songtext
von Melissa Ferrick

Well, I guess I was never that much of a child
I was key brown ice eyed and cold
I was bitter and driven
Had to find all the givens
And the how′s and the why's
And of course, I cried at every loud sound

And it was the bathroom and the kitchen
Both white and sprayed red
I ran to my playhouse by the river
And it was there that I learned how to climb my first fence

Well, I′ve got five candles on my birthday cake
And the fifth one is for luck
And I've got ten minutes to get it straight
I run up the stairs, monsters behind me
Turn the knob, too late


Now I guess I was never that much of a child
I was key brown ice eyed and cold
I was bitter and driven
Had to find all the givens
And of course, I had to grab a hold
Of the frog named Freddy
Who danced and jumped heavy into my swimming pool

And it was the bathroom and the kitchen
Both white and sprayed red
And I ran to my play house by the river
And it was there that I learned how to play dead

Well I've got five candles on my birthday cake you see
And the fifth one is for luck
And I′ve got ten minutes to get it straight
Run up the stairs monsters behind me
Turn the knob, too late, I′m too late
I'm too late

But I guess I was never that much of a child
I was key brown ice eyed and cold
I was bitter and driven
Had to find all of the givens
And of course, I had to grab a hold
Of the frog named Freddy
Who danced and jumped heavy
Into my, into my, into my, into my
Into my, into my, into my, into my swimming pool
