lyrics
She set a blue plate down at noon on the oak table Grandma cut the green beans thin and said, "boy, be able" In the screen door shade, she watched him from the yard Then she shook her head slow, and her eyes stayed hard She wore her house shoes by the sink Said, "I don't need a second think" He brought peonies from North High Street She said, "Set 'em down, don't call that sweet" Not for us Not for us Not for us Not for us She crossed her arms and shut the trust Not for us Not for us Not for us Not for us Nobody gets a nod from her but us At six-fifteen, she shelved the peach jam tight The porch fan clicked once in the June dusk light He waited by the Buick with his clean white shoes She wiped her hands on the dish towel and said, "I don't choose" She wore her house shoes by the sink Said, "I don't need a second think" He brought peonies from North High Street She said, "Set 'em down, don't call that sweet" Not for us Not for us Not for us Not for us She crossed her arms and shut the trust Not for us Not for us Not for us Not for us Nobody gets a nod from her but us Now the mason jar rings in the cupboard door And the note on the fridge says "leave it on the floor" I laugh, she smirks, and I know that look She likes the ones she can read like a book Not for us Not for us Not for us Not for us She crossed her arms and shut the trust Not for us Not for us Not for us Not for us Nobody gets a nod from her but us
