The Festie's Lament

The Festie's Lament

My hair is thick with sweat and DEET
The fire pit sand has scratched my feet
I'm really, really short of sleep
But I don't wanna go home (2X)
Chorus:
It's fest time in the forest
Where the trees will never blush
It's fest time in the forest
And there isn't any rush.
I don't know where my kids have gone
They run around with no clothes on
They'll sing my ex a merry song
But I don't wanna go home (2X)
(Chorus)
The robins start at 4:00am
To catch their worms and call to friends
The little kids are louder yet
But I don't wanna go home (2X)
(Chorus)
The other night a gentle rain
Touched my feet at 3:00am
Washed all my clothes and sleeping bags
But I don't wanna go home (2X)
(Chorus)
My friends fall in and out of love
My friends fall in and out of bed
And I'm in charge of seven kids
But I don't wanna go home (2X)
(Chorus)
