Father To Son

(one, two, three, four)



My father said "son, now my life's work is done

There's a future for you, there's a job to be done

Stop fighting the system 'cause the system won't break

Get your hair cut boy and learn from my mistakes"

Now i said to my father "father give me a break

There's a million more chances that i'm bom to take

I don't want to die like i saw you die

In a dead end job in a dead end way"



How many years must i waste in these black times

How many years must i waste



Today i can't find nothing nowhere

Tomorrow i might find something somewhere

Give me a future now

I need it so badly now

Oh for tomorrow



"these are times of recession" father said unto me

"don't you leave now my son, you'll break our family"

I said, "i've got ideas that i cannot deny

If i stay i'll be killed by the dreams on my mind."



How many years must i waste in these black times

How many years must i waste



Today i can't find nothing nowhere

Tomorrow i might find something somewhere

Give me a future now

I need it so badly now

Oh for tomorrow



I see the signs of black times everywhere i run

I can't can't escape them

No matter how hard i try

I see these signs of black time everywhere i run

I can't stand another day

I gotta move away

I gotta move away



Today i can't find nothing nowhere

Tomorrow i might find something somewhere

Give me a future now

I need it so badly now

Oh for tomorrow

Oh for tomorrow
