yeah you've both got it down
It all changed when he left,
you were alone, you were scared
you're the man of your house
You were bored out of your mind,
All the words on the page
And the teachers had long given up
Oh, we're not much different, you and I
Only sometimes we're a mil
You left home and came back
as the job market crashed
Back in with your mum at age 21
Save your cash for a flat
Soon adopted a cat, still a child,
you're the man of your house
as your son grasps your hand
You're aware from the start,
From the world, it's your chance,
Oh my son, it won't happen to you
Oh we're not much different, you and I
And you said, be a brave boy
You get this fight, it'll open doors indeed
And you'll always have our full support
And always know this choice is yours
And the pain that I felt won't
Cos the face that you wear
in the times that you were scared
from the moment you were born
as our instincts take shape
You're a child, you're a man,
