said: Mama, Baba
and something like
gimme gimme gimme
every Friday night at Pizza Hut.

Mom and Dad would take us
for pizza night
also known as game night
or, “Got a quarter for the juke box?
I wanna rock this joint.”
Get a little personal with my pizza
do sing-along Bon Jovi.

Gimme, gimme another quarter
Mama, Baba,
Whatcha wanna hear?
One more song by Reba Mac
then we go out the door
a little shimmy
a little wag
a little me.
