Song Lyrics

Hey, dad
Yes, Son?
I thought today was a lot of fun

Hey Son
Yes, dad?
Today was the funnest day a dad ever had

Building castles in the sand
Just you and I
Driving round in the car
I even let you drive
Eating dinner from a can
dad's yummy can delight

Just a guy and his little guy

Son I know it's hard to watch your daddy cry
It hasn't been easy since your Mama died
But don't you worry, we'll be alright
Remember we're a family just you and I

You know very well, dad, Mama didn't die
She just hooked up with another guy
His names Trevor and now they live together
That's where you pick me up on Fridays nights

Dont you wonder where I go?
You always go for a while
You never ask me where I've been
Don't want to cramp your style
When I see you on weekends
You always make me smile

That's the smile of my little guy

Hey dad, can I sit on your knee?
Got questions about the world that are troubling me

Tell me every question that you have for me
And tell me does your Momma still mention me?

When I grow up what will I do?
Will I be a Fireman or work in the Zoo?

You can do whatever whatever you choose
The world is at the feet of a kid like you

Just a boy and his dad
Just a dad and his kid
Hanging out together (together)

I'd like to live on the moon
Or maybe live on a star
Or will I be like you, dad, and live in the car?

You can't live on a star you'll disintegrate to ash
And where you spend your nights is dependent on cash

Will I fall in love and will it be forever
Or will she leave me one day for someone like Trevor?

Well you just never know how love will end
But never ever introduce her to your handsomest friend

Just a boy and his dad
Just a dad and his Kid
Hanging out together (together)

Since your Momma ran away
Been thinking about your lonely little heart every day
But you, you don't need to feel so sad
You've still got your dad

Since your Momma ran away
No, she didn't run away
I think about your lonely little heart every single day
dad she's living in our old place
But the two of us we don't need to feel so sad
I'm not sad

Because you've still got dad (because I've still got dad)
And another even cooler dad

Ever since your Momma ran away, she passed away then ran away
Oh she wished she did it years ago
I've been trying to think of the right words to say
Oh dad, she calls you an asshole
But the two of us we still don't need to feel so bad
I'm not sad

Because I've got two dads (because you've still got your dad)

And Trevor bought me a brand new bike
Love has not been the same when she went away
Trevor lets me watch anything I like
And I've been thinking about my lonely little heart every day
Eat ice cream on week day nights
But you know what makes me feel so glad
I'm not sad

Because I've still got dad (I'm still your dad)
I'm still your biological dad


Hey dad, can I sit on your knee?
Got questions about the world that are troubling me
No Son don't you sit on my knee
You're too big now you're thirty-three
You'll always be my little guy
I'll always be your little guy
But you're thirty-three (but I'm thirty-free)
