I’m afraid I don’t remember how it happened
But I do recall the end result
One blurry, chemically-induced romantic night
Had shaped our future. It’s all my fault.
How could I bring a life into this world
When mine had only just begun?
When the sins of the father
May one day be the sins of the son
Could our children’s children ever show us how
The struggle of life is won?
Ten years have passed, and I can not tell you his first word
Who’s his hero, or his best friend’s name
But I can tell you what I had to drink last night
When I was watching the football game
I hope he won’t grow up to be like me
‘Cause it’s too late for me to change
