Father Lyrics - Waterboys

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
