When the big hand is on twelve and the little hand on six
You come home tonight and no more childish pranks
You come home from work real quick or your mama get stick
Yes your mama get stick and mama spank

Every night you don't come home from the way you're out alone
Who would ever think that you're a married man
I would guess your age to be twenty eight going on three
So I'll speak in a language you can understand
When the big hand is on twelve

Yes I know you like to play but we've got our bills to pay
And the kids need shoes much more than you need fun
Up to now I've been too mild you've been acting like a child
So I'll have to just start treating you like one
When the big hand is on twelve
