The Waterboys - Father lyrics

Oh father, what happened to you Did you have more urgent affairs to attend to? Did business press, or did you just get bored Thrown half your life through a one way door? Sometimes it scares me, look in the mirror And see myself growing up looking like you No i don't have much time to waste getting worried I've got more urgent affairs of my own to attend to Father, what happened to you Haven't seen you in a whole decade Did you ever learn, did you ever grow up Are you still as weak, do i make you feel afraid? Do you tell your friends there's a son somewhere? Did you ever wonder how he looks? Did anyone ever give you my number? Say here's two pence 'cos my phone's off the hook
