Kids say the darndest things
Have you ever listened close
To the games they play or the little songs they sing?

Last night dressed up in high heeled shoes
And wearing my old hat
My four year old said: "I want to divorce."
Now where did she hear that?

Kids say the darndest things
Have you ever listened close
To the games they play or the little songs they sing?

Last night as I watched TV
Our one rushed through the door
"Mommy, Daddy's telling someone on the phone
"Don't you call me here no more."

Kids say the darndest things
Have you ever listened close to the games they play
Or the little songs they sing?

"I bet my Daddy can whip your Daddy
But Daddy's never home."
"And I think Mommy's worried 'bout him
'Cause she cried all night long."
Kids say the darndest things
Have you ever listened close
To the games they play or the little songs they sing?

You never know what they learn at school
Or what they're thinking of
My first grader just said a four letter word
And it sure wasn't love
