Dad's Song Lyrics

It's hard to smile

When all you catch is shit and slight

And the bastards grind you down

This is no life

To be served up hand to mouth

And expect it with a smile

So what is right?

Being scorned for what you've been told

Or standing up to make a change?

And if I'm wrong, you all just carry on

I'll send myself on my way

After all this is what you've come to expect

We watched our fathers stick out their necks

Is this all?

A life of regrets

We were warned: make your own path

And take it

All the while, all we got are aches and pains

And the boss is sitting back

You spend your life following protocol

But in the end there is no friend
