Missing You

You are, you are, you are, you are, you are
Everythin' I don't wanna be, be
Everythin' I don't wanna be, be
But I, but I, but I, but I can see
Everything of you in me
What the fuck? Goodbye, goodbye

"Hey Dad", gee, it feels funny to say that
Got any money to pay back? Mum's broke
Her boyfriend's a dumb joke, some drunk bloke
Gets way mad, kinda like you

Well, that's what I heard, my word
You got a dynamite fuse
Now tell me, how'd you like to buy booze
Write tunes and hide from everybody that tries to find you?

Yo Riley, why'd you sideline me?
I tried to phone, but you don't answer
That's what I do, see, I'm kinda like you, true
Check this smile, if you wanna gander
I got bad teeth too, must be in the gene pool

It's got me thinkin' what you've been through
It's been a minute since I've seen you
Maybe we can meet soon, if not, I can understand it
Keep cool, kickin' in your caravan
And how'd you go after that accident?
Face full of glass, long neck and some painkillers
I'm just askin' why you ain't with us

You are, you are, you are, you are, you are
Everythin' I don't wanna be, be
Everythin' I don't wanna be, be
But I, but I, but I, but I can see
Everything of you in me
What the fuck? Goodbye, goodbye

(Missing you, just miss-missing you)
(Just missing you, miss-miss-miss-missing you, oh)
(Missing you, missing, missing you)
(Missing, missing you, oh, oh, oh)

What up, pops? Yo, I've got to give props
From day dot, you were workin' more than one job
Just to keep the heat on, on that night shift
Where has he gone? 'Cause by day, you would get your sleep on

Age eight, moved to the UK for opportunities, but never seen none
Touché, cityscape in the eighties were an immigrant
Wasn't killin' shit, shitty pay to put some scraps on your dinner plate
It's a pity, hey, I remember how it happened when
You had that crash and your back got bent, that was some tragic shit
When you lost your court case
I'll never forget the look I saw upon your face of pure pain
That day forth you had a changed demeanor
Went from happy-go-lucky to couldn't give a fuck

I began to say how hard it was to see ya
With each new day, you grow a little more meaner
To my brother George, bro, know that you're a great bloke
Sorry that he chose you as his scapegoat
No more bear hugs for the bear cubs
Just medicated drugs, but I maintain hope

You are, you are, you are, you are, you are
Everythin' I don't wanna be, be
Everythin' I don't wanna be, be
But I, but I, but I, but I can see
Everything of you in me
What the fuck? Goodbye, goodbye

(Missing you, just miss-missing you)
(Just missing you, miss-miss-missing you, oh)
(Missing you, just miss-missing you)
(Just missing you, miss-miss-missing you, oh)
(Missing you, missing, missing you)
(Missing, missing you, oh, oh, oh)
