Father And Son

F It’s not time to make a change, just relax take it easy, you’re still

Young that’s your fault there’s so much you have to know. Find a girl settle down, if you want you can marry, look at me, I’m old but I’m happy.

I was once like you are now, and I know that it’s not easy, to be calm when you’ve found something going on. But take your time, think a lot, why think of everything you’ve got. For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.

S How can I try to explain, cause when I do he turns away again. It’s always been the same old story. From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen, now there’s a way and I know that I have to go away. I know, I have to go.

Dedicated follower of fashion

His clothes are loud

But never square

It will make or break him

So he’s got to buy the best

Cause he’s a (dedicated follower of fashion)

And when he does his little round

On busy streets of old London town

Eagerly pursuing all the latest fads and trends

For he’s a dedicated follower of fashion
