credit for going and Jesus look at me

I'm a stone cold fox

See Mom I didn't do anything wrong you

can trust me I'm a good kid you're not

going to the town town room I ain't the

self is like a prison this house is not

like a prison although there was a time

you'd have sex with me for a pack of

cigarettes

well it really bothers me that she

didn't invite you to this

father-daughter thing it's like he never

do anything together anymore that's not

true just this morning we had a nice

talk about her future I told her to get

the hell out of the bathroom she said

she was leaving this house as soon as

she turned 18 and I thought that

couldn't come soon enough despite that

very sweet moment you need to spend

quality time together yeah Judy's right

you know girls relationship with her

father is very important to say yeah

when I was a kid my father and I had a

great relationship one Sunday and once

he would take me out for breakfast made

me feel like a princess what dad took

you up for breakfast I never did

anything with me sure he did I remember

him taking you out every Saturday to

physical therapy to get my ducks feet

straight while he was there to support

you Judy he dropped me off and go to the

bar and then quack at me on the ride

home well my point is when I became a

teenager my father and I drifted apart

mess when I started getting into trouble

and hanging out with the wrong kind of

guy hey that's when you met me and I

don't regret it but you might not want

our daughter doing the things we did

fine I'll spend some time with my

daughter so she won't end up like you
