Stepdad

[00:19.08] And now that you know why I'm leavin'
[00:23.20] And your mum's yelling out
[00:24.50] That she hopes I don't come back
[00:27.76] Of course she would say that
[00:35.93] Don't forget what I told you about your demons
[00:40.36] They're just thoughts in your head
[00:41.82] While you sleep no more than that
[00:45.05] Now fetch my duffle bag
[00:53.15] If my ride ain't here, then it's coming
[00:57.38] I can feel it not so far away
[01:01.97] And I know you're angry, youngin
[01:06.16] Dry your eyes up
[01:08.07] Or you won't see
[01:10.36] Big dog walking away
[01:12.93] Now if you think I'm chasing the seasons
[01:15.71] Like a van is some place to be
[01:19.15] I'm your stepdad
[01:21.64] And I know they say I'm scheming of leaving
[01:24.98] Dreaming my life away
[01:30.45] But if you see my name in the headlines
[01:33.19] And they're all pissing on me
[01:36.32] I'm your stepdad
[01:38.78] And I know they say I'm frail and broken
[01:42.43] But you can't treat your mom that way
[01:45.29]
[02:07.18] I'll tell you how I got to Memphis
[02:11.45] Saw your mom on a TV show
[02:13.14] And that was that
[02:16.18] Both my bags were packed
[02:18.85]
[02:24.17] I could put you to sleep just by reading
[02:28.65] Turn the living room into an avalanche
[02:33.06] I loved to make you laugh
[02:41.67] If the paps ain't here
[02:43.35] Then they're coming
[02:45.36] I can hear their flashes blast away
[02:50.32] And I know you're tired, youngin
[02:54.19] Time to wise up
[02:56.23] Or you won't see
[02:58.45] What your dad does for pay
[03:01.14] Now if you think I'm chasing the seasons
[03:03.98] Like a van is some place to be
[03:07.13] I'm your stepdad
[03:09.42] And I know they say I'm scheming of leaving
[03:13.24] Dreaming my life away
[03:18.40] But if you see my name in the headlines
[03:21.28] And they're all pissing on me
[03:24.47] I'm your stepdad
[03:26.82] And I know they say I'm frail and broken
[03:30.23] But you can't treat your mom that way
[03:36.82]
