歌詞

Hey hey, Dad, hey, Dad We got assigned some homework in class The topic they assigned us is Listen and write what your Dad does for a living We have to present in front of everyone It kinda really sucks but I tried for once The teacher told us she’s looking forward To all the class brag about their Dads Oh really, really? Is that so? Well, there’s something about my job you should know It’s a little different than most of them so I give entertainment to the world we know Entertainers, music players, athletes And others who are famous Either at home or place of work I’m there watching their every turn All up in every inch of the their lives That’s just the type off the job of mine So when they mess up a little Or do something at all that is interesting I write every little detail down And release it for the world to see It takes a lot of strength, and patience too It’s not an easy thing to do, what I do Outta sight Every single day Stalking, following, tapping, snapping Doing it your way All day, every day, gonna come back to you All for the money It’s written all over that smug, little face Do you feel nothing? No way around it, you’re wrong, all of you You think you’re better than everyone else How do you sleep every night? Really tell You flip and switch all the ethics around But cheating and dishonesty you write about Bowing down to the politicians Laughing at those who try to make a difference There’s no way when you were young This is what you wanted to be when you grew up I don’t need to know I don’t need to care But if you do what you do, show some pride Acting all tough and up in your business Sneak off into the night like some ninja Simply a coward, can’t respect a bit Your words mean nothing and it makes me sick After the movie Your name was a big hit Y’all start calling out, talking a lot of shit We didn’t just do this overnight Been doing this for ten years, deep in the fight We have fans waiting amazingly, patiently On our unique style of bravery Appreciate them and the bonds we made That’s why we’re selling out arena tours Stupid! Hold up! Lose it! Even if I gave you the benefit of the doubt Doesn’t give you a reason to show up out of the blue in front of fucking parents’ house Asking “How does it feel? Your son finally made it after ten long years” How ‘bout I go to your parents’ house I’ve got some questions I could ask about “Congrats on raising a healthy son Who sits in a car from dusk to dawn Outside someone’s house he waits and waits Bombards with questions that he knows they hate Continues to sneak some photos in too Without any permission Isn’t that rude? He sells his soul to the highest bidding Do you think that’s so right way to make a living? Do you have anything to comment about that?” “No, we don’t” “Of course you do It’s okay if you don’t Just try and force it out of your son Like he does to us too” Woah, Dad, you’re amazing, it’s true So many people would be lost without you I can say any time that I’m really proud that you’re my Dad But, son, look, you gotta listen People make fun of my job, ‘cause it’s different Try to look down, think they’re better than me But I won’t let them get the best of me Your Dad can say, with head held high “I’m living the life and I can provide I do it for the ones who are waiting patiently For me to share something fine” Outta sight Okay, okay, that’s great and all It’s good you take pride in your job You proudly go to work and live today Here is a pat on the back So, say, when I shine the camera And light in your face Be proud and answer right away Acting like you are on a date But really eavesdropping every word I say Can’t trust people Can’t trust the media Feel like I’m fully going insane Can’t tell the truth Can’t tell what’s fake And you expect a smile on my face Blame it on the media that craves the info Blame it on the people that crave the info So you do it ‘cause people expect it of you? Isn’t that a godly thing to do? You do it just to put a little food on your plate You do it for some people just to entertain But all those people that you erased Still have to face the world and live today I do exactly what I need to do You do what people be ashamed of you If you still wanna say you have no shame Then live your life without sneaky ways You can’t even look at me in the light But still have the never to say you’re proud of your life Hey Dad, I finished, I tried real hard I’m gonna give it my all tomorrow Stand in front of my class so proud Tell everyone exactly who you are Thanks, son That means a lot I’m proud of you whether I say it or not Oh yeah, about tomorrow I’ve been working too much, too long I haven’t spent much time with you Let’s take a family trip, wherever you want to So don’t you worry I’ll let you skip class Just don’t tell the teacher it’ll be our secret
