Styx

Album: STYX II
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
that's never been to sea
the bottle
that surrounds your life
you'll sail eternally
[keyboard solo]
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
[continue echo]
father
[continue echo]
