Tekst piosenki:
FRANK SR (spoken):
That's the way of the world, Carl, our fathers screw us up we turn around and do the same thing to our kids. The eternal cycle
CARL (spoken):
Until somebody breaks it
FRANK SR:
Little boy, be a man
Yeah, that was pop's only plan
He never kissed me
Or sang "Baby mine"
Sure, I'd have loved a hug
But hey, I came out just fine
And if I ever would cry
He'd smack the tear from out my eye
He told me "Grow up, kid
You're no Peter Pan
Little boy, be a man"
CARL(spoken):
But, you wanna do your kid better, right?
FRANK SR (spoken):
You got any kids Carl?
CARL (spoken):
I do not
FRANK SR (spoken):
Then what the hell do you know about it? I s'pose your father was a prince
CARL (spoken):
Yep. Of darkness
CARL:
Little man, grow some balls
FRANK SR (Spoken):
Oh he did not
CARL (spoken):
He did too, every single morning
CARL:
That motto rang
Throught the halls
CARL(spoken):
True story
CARL:
On my tenth birthday
He showed me a gun
Then took me to the cornfields
And said "Okay ... run!"
His sense of humor was lame
FRANK SR(Spoken):
Like father like son
CARL (spoken):
Hey!
CARL:
Lucky for me, so was his aim!
If he had sewn some needlepoint
That hung on the walls
It woulda said "Little man
Grow some balls"
BOTH:
Ballgames that he missed
Nights he came home pissed
Well I don't think about
That any longer
CARL:
No one in the bleachers
FRANK SR:
Fistfights with my teachers
BOTH:
I'm living proof
What doesn't kill ya
Makes ya stronger!
CARL (spoken):
So what do you say we set the kid straight? Huh, Frank?
FRANK SR (spoken):
Hey, the kid's doing great, he's doing fine!
CARL (spoken):
You sure about that?
FRANK SR (spoken):
Oh you gotta let go, Carl. You can't hang on forever!
FRANK SR:
Little man, little me
They come with no warranty
I tried to fix it
But who would've guessed
It's hard to say but father
BOTH:
Doesn't always know best
CARL (spoken):
That is the truth
FRANK SR:
So Carl, when you have a kid
CARL:
My ex said heaven forbid
FRANK SR:
Do as I say, not as I did
BOTH:
Like dad after dad after
Dad after dad
Since the whole mess began
FRANK SR:
You do the best that you can
CARL:
Little boy, be a man
