Father O.S.A.

Father you're a sad old man

Your tawdry vest is gray

Memories of a former man

Are all your words convey

 

Father oh can't you see

The tarnished robe you wear

A crown for fools

The people laugh

You never seem to hear

 

Father you're life's a ship

That's never been to sea

The bottle that surrounds your life

You'll sail eternally

 

Children please understand

A man must stand alone

And face a world he'll never know

And never call his own
