once i saw you naked there was nothing to show....

sean's mom (i don't know your name either):

i never liked your house
or your smirks,
not to mention your reputation.
that little son of yours,
he's so sure of himself.
throw a chemistry book at him,
he'll try to hit you through the window with a golf ball.
he sure made me giggle.
but not you. i couldn't even wave.
not that you knew my name, anyway.
i was just another one of those stereotypes,
oh, so different from your teenage son,
i bet you didn't know he borrowed my janis joplin cd once.
i used to make jokes about him.
i'm not sure how it started,
but he was the root of a handful of dares.
i'm not even sure if he's ever been naked,
besides taking showers and changing and all.
not that he'd know, but the parties are always better
on the other side of the road.
just go ahead and call the cops, again.
i hope you're proud.
you sure looked it at that ceremony the other night.
i could tell that pompous motherly security,
even though i hadn't seen your face
in the light for a good five months.
you never remember me though,
even when you're buying damn cookies
in line beside me.
gee, it's a small town.
i'm surprised you haven't moved yet.
