Like Father, Like Son
Lyricist:Elton John, Tim Rice
Like father, like son Like father, like son
Don't come on so cocksure, boy You can't escape your genes No point in feeling pure, boy Your background intervenes
Listen good and listen straight You're not the master of your fate To this you must be reconciled You'll always be your father's child
At times acclaimed, at times reviled You'll wind up doing just what I've done Like father, like son
Don't assume your vices Get handed down the line That a parent's blood suffices To condemn the child's design
I've done wrong, I can't deny But at least I know that I I shouldn't blame that on my stock Well, this may come as quite a shock
But I'm no chip off any block I wouldn't wish those words on anyone Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Like father, like son
Son, you're nervous, take my hand All is settled,all is planned You've got the world at your command I don't think you understand
I appreciate too well The squalor at which you excel It isn't very hard to tell Evil's a distinctive smell
He's lost all sense of reason and why? Some foreign slut Not only is that treason Some doors are slamming shut
Now just like me he's found That flesh can excite but will enmesh Once we rid him of this blight Once this harlot's out of sight Then I think he'll see the light
He won't walk back to daddy, he will run Like father, like son
Like father, like son Like father, like son Like father, like son
