Styx - Father O.s.a. lyrics

Written by dennis deyoung Lead vocals by dennis deyoung 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 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 [continue echo] Father Father Father Father Father Father [continue echo]
