Mr Que |
| [00:12.00] |
My child arrived just the other day; |
| [00:15.00] |
came to the world in the usually way |
| [00:18.00] |
but there were planes to catch and bills to pay. |
| [00:22.00] |
He learned to walk while I was away. |
| [00:24.00] |
He was talking before I knew it. |
| [00:26.00] |
And as he grew he said, |
| [00:28.00] |
I'm gonna be like you, Dad. |
| [00:31.00] |
You know I'm gonna be like you. |
| [00:35.00] |
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon, |
| [00:39.00] |
Little boy blue and the man in the moon. |
| [00:42.00] |
When you coming home? |
| [00:43.00] |
Son, I don't know when. |
| [00:45.00] |
We'll get together then. |
| [00:48.00] |
You know we'll have a good time then. |
| [00:58.00] |
Well, my son turned ten just the other day. |
| [01:01.00] |
He said, Thanks for the ball, Dad. Come on, let's play. |
| [01:04.00] |
Could you teach me to throw? I said, Not today. |
| [01:08.00] |
I got a lot to do. He said, That's okay. |
| [01:11.00] |
And he walked away and he smiled he said, |
| [01:14.00] |
You know, |
| [01:15.00] |
I'm gonna be like him, yeah. |
| [01:17.00] |
You know I'm gonna be like him. |
| [01:22.00] |
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon, |
| [01:25.00] |
Little boy blue and the man in the moon. |
| [01:28.00] |
When you coming home? |
| [01:30.00] |
Son, I don't know when. |
| [01:32.00] |
We'll get together then. |
| [01:34.00] |
You know we'll have a good time then. |
| [01:46.00] |
Well, he came from college just the other day, |
| [01:49.00] |
So much like a man I just had to say, |
| [01:53.00] |
I'm proud of you. Could you sit for a while? |
| [01:56.00] |
He shook his head and he said with a smile, |
| [01:59.00] |
What I'd really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys. |
| [02:02.00] |
See you later. Can I have them please? |
| [02:07.00] |
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon, |
| [02:10.00] |
Little boy blue and the man in the moon. |
| [02:13.00] |
When you coming home? |
| [02:15.00] |
Son, I don't know when. |
| [02:17.00] |
We'll get together then. |
| [02:19.00] |
You know we'll have a good time then. |
| [02:38.00] |
I've long since retired, my son's moved away. |
| [02:41.00] |
I called him up just the other day. |
| [02:46.00] |
I'd like to see you, if you don't mind. |
| [02:49.00] |
He said, I'd love to, Dad, if I could find the time. |
| [02:49.00] |
He said, I'd love to, Dad, if I could find the time. |
| [02:53.00] |
You see my new job's a hassle and the kids have the flu, |
| [02:57.00] |
But it's sure nice talking to you, Dad. |
| [03:00.00] |
It's been sure nice talking to you. |
| [03:05.00] |
And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me, |
| [03:08.00] |
He'd grown up just like me. |
| [03:11.00] |
My boy was just like me. |
| [03:15.00] |
(Yeah, yeah, yeah) |
| [03:16.00] |
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon, |
| [03:19.00] |
Little boy blue and the man in the moon. |
| [03:22.00] |
When you coming home? |
| [03:23.00] |
Son, I don't know when. |
| [03:26.00] |
We'll get together then. |
| [03:29.00] |
You know we'll have a good time then. |
| [03:33.00] |
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon, |
| [03:36.00] |
Little boy blue and the man in the moon. |
| [03:39.00] |
When you coming home? |
| [03:41.00] |
Son, I don't know when. |
| [03:43.00] |
We'll get together then. |
| [03:45.00] |
You know we'll have a good time then. |
