Father & Son
                                 It's not time to make a change,
                               Just relax, take it easy.
                                You're still young, that's your fault,
                                There's so much you have to know.
                                Find a girl, settle down,
                                If you want you can marry.
                                Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.
 
                                I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy,
                                To be calm when you've found something going on.
                                But take your time, think a lot,
                                Why, think of everything you've got.
                                For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.
 
                                How can I try to explain, when I do he turns away again.
                                It's always been the same, same old story.
                                From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen.
                                Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away.
                                I know I have to go.
 
                                It's not time to make a change,
                                Just sit down, take it slowly.
                                You're still young, that's your fault,
                                There's so much you have to go through.
                                Find a girl, settle down,
                                if you want you can marry.
                                Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy.

                               All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside,
                               It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it.
                               If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them you know not me.
                               Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away.
                               I know I have to go.
