Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Don't come on so cocksure, boy, you can't escape your genes
There's no point in feeling pure, boy, your background intervenes
Now listen good and listen straight, you're not the master of your fate
To this you must be reconciled, you'll always be your father's child
At times acclaimed, at times reviled
You'll wind up doing just as I'd have done
Like father, like son
Don't assume your vices, get handed down the line
That a parent's blood suffices, to condemn the child's design
I've done wrong, I can't deny, but at least I know that I
I shouldn't blame that on my stock, well this may come as quite a shock
But I'm no chip off any block, I wouldn't wish those words on anyone
Like father, like son
Son you're nervous, take my hand
All is settled, all is planned
You've got the world at your command
I don't think you understand
I appreciate too well
The squalor at which you excel
It isn't very hard to tell
Evil's a distinctive smell
He's lost all sense of reason
And why? Some foreign sl*t
Not only is that treason,
Some doors are slamming shut
Just like me he's found that flesh, can excite but will enmesh
Once we rid him of this blight.
Once that harlot's out of sight.
Then I'll think he'll see the light.
He won't walk back to daddy, he'll run.
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
