lyrics

Grandma Rose

Rose House, the tap and piano teacher who lives in the city of Los Banos. She overcame the obstacles and the stigmas of being a divorcee in the 50’s. Raising by herself, my uncle and mother. Grandma Rose was always kind to me, till this day she treats my mom horribly. We took emmett to met you, do you happen to remember? You said he looked much cuter in his picture. You told my mom that he looked cuter in the picture.

Every summer when I was a kid, she’d take me, my sister and cousin to santa cruz. The boardwalk, the motel pool and uncle jimmy smelling perpetually of booze. I remember playing ouji board at your house with my older sister and our cousin. I also remember all those trips to reno you took with aunt mickey. Grandma Rose was always nice enough to me, till this day she treats her daughter terribly. We took emmett to met you, do you happen to remember? You said he looked much cuter in the picture.

It took me awhile to see just what an asshole you are and how emotionally abusive you were to our mom. You see gram, I see who you are, we see what you are, you see grandma, how mean you are?

Fucking christ, you’re getting really old, you’d think that you’d come around, try to make amends and leave this earth on a good note. I hear you’re nastier than ever, a manipulative 90 something ego maniac. Who gambled away everything she had earned, except tall tales and that bad attitude. You’ve always played favorites, even with your kids, you’ll never meet juniper or meridian. How did you get so caustic, bitter and toxic?
