442 - Matchbox Cars Lyrics

Frankie's mother said he can't come out to play
I guess he got caught again trying to throw his peas away
It's too bad cuz there's plenty of time left in the day
To play with our matchbox cars

We've got a nice spot in the shade
And mom just made some nice cold lemonade
We can carve out some tunnels and maybe a batcave
When we play with our matchbox cars

And Mom says its a school night
But she knows where we're going to be all night...
Racing our matchbox cars

Jimmy says he's too old, he's missing all the fun
He had the coolest firebird but now he never comes
Billie's got that GTO with the black and red stripes
And he knows better cuz he'll be cruising that thing all night

And when the weekend rolls around
All the neighbors, they can hear the sound of the boys racing matchbox cars

And Jimmy's sister wants to play
But we know her all too well
Mom said stop taking her spoons
But the roads won't build themselves
And my dad don't care but mom always yells
When we come home covered in mud

But in the end moms cool
'Cuz she knows where we've been
And Jimmy's sister is crying
'Cuz we won't let her in
Besides we never really go that far
And like dad alway says
You don't bother the boys when they're playing with their match box cars
