lyrics

Today I held a funeral for a frog on my front porch
I gave a pretty decent speech, how life is dazzling and short
Then we put it in a shoebox and I snuck it in the trash when we were done

Who am I to tell my kids they shouldn’t care 'bout things like that
All they know is something’s gone and that it isn’t coming back
And everything is precious, at least it feels that way when you’re that young

You wanna keep it but you can’t…
You wanna keep it but you can’t…
You wanna keep it but you can’t so you scream and you shout

I have a Tupperware container with a thousand popped balloons
Cried a tear for every one, they were unbearable to lose
I don't know why I keep on buying them, they just get so damn happy when I do

You wanna keep it but you can’t…
You wanna keep it but you can’t…
You wanna keep it but you can’t so you scream and you shout

You scream and you shout
You scream and you shout
You scream and you shout
You scream and you shout
You scream and you shout
You scream and you shout
You scream and you shout

All our books have torn up pages, all our pants have torn up knees
Doesn’t matter you’ll outgrow them in another couple weeks
It’s like we’re racing down a hillside and we’re only gaining speed and then we’re done

You wanna keep it but you can’t…
