| Parody: SONS |
Original: |
I know a boy,
He puts the color inside my world
But he's not all himself,
There's something he wants, something better than wealth
And I've done all I can
To stand on his steps with my heart in my hands
Now I'm starting to see
Maybe it's got nothing to do with me |
I know a girl
She puts the color inside of my world
But she's just like a maze
Where all of the walls are continually changed
And I've done all I can
To stand on her steps with my heart in my hands
Now I'm starting to see
Maybe it's got nothing to do with me |
Mothers, be good to your
sons
Sons will love like you do
Sons become lovers who turn into fathers
So fathers, be good to your sons too
|
Fathers, be good to your
daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too |
Oh, you see that skin?
It's his body that he's liven in
But since the day he felt it stolen away
And now he's left wondering why...
|
Oh, you see that skin?
It's the same she's been standing in
Since the day she saw him walking away
Now I'm left
Cleaning up the mess he made |
So mothers, be good to your sons
Sons will love like you do
Sons become lovers who turn into fathers
So fathers, be good to your sons too
Boys, you can break
But it's not yours to take
Boys will be strong
And boys soldier on
But boys would be kinder with warmth from
A woman's good, good heart
|
So fathers, be good to your
daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too
Boys, you can break
You'll find out how much they can take
Boys will be strong
And boys soldier on
But boys would be gone without the warmth from
A woman's good, good heart |
On behalf of every woman
Looking out for every boy
You are the god and the weight of his world
So mothers, be good to your sons
Sons will love like you do
Sons become lovers who turn into fathers
So fathers, be good to your sons too. [x3] |
On behalf of every man
Looking out for every girl
You are the guide and the weight of her world
So fathers, be good to your daughters
Daughters will love like you do
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers
So mothers, be good to your daughters too [x3]
