Compromised Young Man
You work so much you're never home
Can't you see that I'm all alone
Give me those lectures, "do your best"
Where are you when I take the test
I just can't handle what others can
Guess I'm a compromised young man
Is it over, is it over
Or do you need to go again
Is it over, is it over
Just a father, not a friend
Learn from mistakes that's what you say
Wrote me a letter I threw it away
How many nights sleep never came
Stuck in the waiting room again
When I go out you crawl back in
Wait for the pain to do me in
Is it over, is it over
Or do I need to go again
Is it over, is it over
Is it over, is it over
Just a father, not a friend
Is it over, is it over
I never took your good advice
I'm not that strong, you're not that wise
Shouldn't have let me come back home
Some things are only learned when you're all alone
Is it over, is it over
Or do we need to go again
Is it over, is it over
Is it over, is it over
Just a father, not a friend
Is it over, is it over
Please don't let me fall again
Can't you see that I'm all alone
Give me those lectures, "do your best"
Where are you when I take the test
I just can't handle what others can
Guess I'm a compromised young man
Is it over, is it over
Or do you need to go again
Is it over, is it over
Just a father, not a friend
Learn from mistakes that's what you say
Wrote me a letter I threw it away
How many nights sleep never came
Stuck in the waiting room again
When I go out you crawl back in
Wait for the pain to do me in
Is it over, is it over
Or do I need to go again
Is it over, is it over
Is it over, is it over
Just a father, not a friend
Is it over, is it over
I never took your good advice
I'm not that strong, you're not that wise
Shouldn't have let me come back home
Some things are only learned when you're all alone
Is it over, is it over
Or do we need to go again
Is it over, is it over
Is it over, is it over
Just a father, not a friend
Is it over, is it over
Please don't let me fall again
