歌词

[01:18.36] You know he'll take you
[01:22.31] But not too far
[01:27.37] Always first in line
[01:31.06] But second to none
[01:36.87] The good son
[01:40.87] The good son
[01:54.00] He loves a good tune so whistle one he knows
[02:05.62] He looks to you to see things right
[02:18.28]
[02:21.40] So take this ring and pass it on
[02:26.11] There's always stories riddled with lies
[02:31.17] You know the questions are best put aside
[02:37.11] Listen to him
[02:41.98]
[02:45.81] Listen closely now here he comes
[02:58.45] It's a shameful way to behave
[03:05.13] It'll hurt if he gets his own way
[03:12.83]
[03:14.71] You know he'll take you
[03:20.27] But not too far
[03:23.96] Always first in line
[03:27.89] Second to none
[03:31.16]
[03:32.14] Listen closely now
[03:36.64] Listen closely now
[03:40.71] Here he comes
[03:45.08] The good son
[03:46.77]
[03:55.45] He tells himself
[03:57.76] It's too far to come
[04:01.39] To redefine his aspirations to be
[04:09.10] The good son
[04:10.10]
[04:12.29] The good son
[04:13.35]
[04:16.17] The good son
[04:18.47]
[04:22.66] "Don't try to make sense of it" she said
[04:32.18] "It's all that you can do to balance up the books
[04:38.30] For him and you"
[04:40.65]
[04:56.04] And though he's nothing in particular
[05:02.81] But he's game for a fight
[05:04.81] He muscles his way in and stays for life
[05:10.69] And all the world has come undone
[05:15.76] And every family should have one
[05:21.18] A good son
