Hey Dad Yes Son? I thought today was a lot of fun Hey Son Yes Dad? Today was the funnest day a Dad ever had Building castles in the sand Just you and I Driving round in the car I even let you drive Eating dinner from a can Dads yummy can surprise Just a guy and his little guy Just a guy and his little guy Son I know it's hard to see your Daddy cry But it's been pretty rough since your Mother died But stay strong, stay tough my little guy Cause we can be a family just you and I You know very well Dad Mumma didn't die She just hooked up with another guy His names Trevor and now they live together That's where you pick me up on Fridays nights Dont you wonder where I go? You always go for a while You never ask me where I've been Don't want to cramp your style When I see you on weekends You always make me smile Just the smile of my little guy Just the smile of my little guy Hey Dad can I sit on your knee? Got questions about the world that are troubling me Well tell me all those questions that you have for me And tell me does your Mother still mention me? When I grow up what will I do? Will I be a Fireman or work in the Zoo? You can do whatever whatever you choose The worlds at your feet well it's all up to you Just a boy and his Dad Just a Dad and his kid Hanging out together together I'd like to live on the moon Or maybe live on a star Or will I be like you Dad and live in the car? You can't live on a star you'd be burnt into ash And where you spend your nights is just a matter of cash Will I fall in love and will it be forever Or will she leave me someday for someone like Trevor? You just never know how love will end But don't let her spend time with your handsomer friend Just a boy and his Dad Just a Dad and his Kid Hanging out together together Since your Mumma passed away No, she did't pass away I think about your lonely little heart every single day Oh she's living in our old place Together we don't need to feel so bad I'm not sad Because I've still got Dad Because you've still got Dad And another even cooler Dad Since your Mumma ran away Oh she wished she did it years ago I think about your lonely little heart every single day Oh Pappa she calls you an asshole But you don't need to feel so sad I'm not sad Because I've got two Dads Because you've still got Dad And Trevor bought me a brand new bike Since your Mother ran, since your Mother ran and passed away Some of us really do other things and I I think about your lonely heart your lonely heart every day That's where I go on weekday nights But the two of us have got, the two of us got to be quite glad I'm not sad Because I've still got Dad Because you've still got Dad Hey Dad can I sit on your knee? Got questions about the world that are troubling me No Son you can't sit on my knee You're too big you're thirty-three You'll always be my little guy But you're thirty-three
