Your Red Wagon
Navigating Life's Carousel: Your Red Wagon Wisdom
Lyrics
If you wanna go crazy and act like a clown
If you want to behave recklessly and be the subject of ridicule
Be the laughing stock all over town
Facing public embarrassment in the entire town
That's your red wagon, that's your red wagon
Referring to the consequences as "your red wagon"
So just keep dragging your red wagon along
Advice to continue enduring the consequences of your actions
If you stick your nose some place it don't belong
Warning against meddling in inappropriate matters
Don't you come to me if things go wrong
Not seeking support if the undesirable outcome occurs
That's your red wagon, that's your red wagon
Reiterating that the consequences are "your red wagon"
So just keep dragging your red wagon along
Encouragement to persist in facing the repercussions
When you're making your bed
When dealing with the consequences of your actions
Remember you'll do the lying there
A reminder that one must accept the consequences of their actions
When you buttered your bread
When you've secured your own advantages
Don't expect me to eat your share!
Not expecting others to share in your success
If you're gonna play horses and blow your dough
If you engage in risky behavior and squander your resources
Don't you run to me if they don't show
Not seeking help if your efforts don't succeed
That's your red wagon, that's your red wagon
Reiterating that the consequences are "your red wagon"
So just keep dragging your red wagon along
Advising to persist in facing the repercussions
So the chick you left me for is tired of you
If the person you left for returns the favor
Baby, why call me 'cause I'm tired too?
Questioning the rationale behind seeking help
That's your red wagon, that's your red wagon
Reiterating that the consequences are "your red wagon"
So just keep dragging your red wagon along
Encouragement to persist in facing the repercussions
Now you've finally learned
Realizing the negative outcomes of risky behavior
That you get burned when you play with fire
A cautionary statement about the dangers of playing with fire
Don't come running to me
Not being available for support when consequences arise
You can't use me for your spare tire
Being unavailable for use as a backup plan
If you don't have love songs to fit my key
If there are no love songs suitable for the situation
Baby, don't sing your blues to me!
Requesting not to share sad experiences with the speaker
That's your red wagon, that's your red wagon
Reiterating that the consequences are "your red wagon"
So just keep dragging your red wagon along
Encouragement to persist in facing the repercussions
