We are the people our parents warned us aboutBy: jimmy buffett1983For ed polockI was supposed to have been a jesuit priest or a naval academy gradThat was the way that my parents perceived meThose were the plans that they hadBut I couldnt fit the part too dumb or too smartAint it funny how we all turned outI guess we are the people our parents warned us aboutYou know I coulda worked the rigs when the money was bigOr hopped a freighter south to trinidadAnd when they tried to draft me I earned a college degreeBuyin time til things were not so badBut then I got a guitar found a job in a barPlayin acid rock til I was numbTell me where are the flashbacks they all warned us would comeChorus:We are the people, they couldnt figure outWe are the people our parents warned us aboutHey hey, gardner mckayTake us on the leaky tiki with youClear skies bound for shanghaiSailing cross the ocean blue (do do do dooo)So blue (do do do dooo oooh)(do do do dooo)(do do do dooo oooh)Now I got quarters in my loafers tryin to fight inflationWhen it only used to take a centSometimes I wish I was back in my crashpad daysfore I knew what cash flow meantSeems everybodys joggin or heavy into health shitDont tell me that I ought to get rolfedcause I love cajun martinis and playin afternoon golfChorus:We are the people there isnt any doubtWe are the people they still cant figure outWe are the people who love to sing "twist and shout"Shake it up babyWe are the people our parents warned us about (do do do dooo)Idn any doubt (do do do dooo oooh)Hey hey hey (do do do dooo)Gardner mckay (do do do dooo, gardner mckay)(do do do dooo)I wanna sail away today (do do do dooo oooh)Isnt any doubt (do do do dooo)They warned us about (do do do dooo oooh)Hey hey hey (do do do dooo)Cmon now gardner mckay (do do do dooo oooh)I wanna sail away today- notes:Background vocals: rita coolidge, david lasley, arnold mcculler
