Father
You're a sad old man
Your tawdry vest is gray

Memories
Of a former man
Are all your words convey

Father
Oh can't you see
The tarnished robe you wear

A crown
For fools
The people laugh
you never seem to hear

Father
You're life's a ship
Tthat's never been to sea

The bottle
That surrounds your life
You'll sail eternally

Children
Please understand
A man must stand alone

And face a world
He'll never know
And never call his own

Ba ba bum bum
Ba ba bum bum
Ba ba bum bum
Ba ba bum bum
Ba ba bum bum
Ba ba bum bum
Ba ba bum bum
Ba ba bum bum

Father
Father
Father
Father
Father
