“What I’d really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys”
3050
See you later, can I have them please?
3051
And the cat’s in the cradle and the silver spoon
3052
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
3053
When you comin’ home, son?
3054
“I don’t know when”
3055
“But we’ll get together then, Dad”
3056
You know we’ll have a good time then
3057
I’ve long since retired, my son’s moved away
3058
I called him up just the other day
3059
I said, “I’d like to see you if you don’t mind.”
3060
He said, I’d love to, dad, if I could find the time
3061
You see my new job’s a hassle and the kids have the flu
3062
But it’s sure nice talking to you, dad,
3063
It’s been sure nice talking to you."
3064
And as I hung up the phone, it occurred to me
3065
He’d grown up just like me
3066
My boy was just like me
3067
And the cat’s in the cradle and the silver spoon
3068
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
