World's Greatest Dad

A dad who's a million miles away
When he meets me, who knows what he'll see?
But deep down I know I shouldn't be afraid
'Cause he's bound to be a lot like me

And we'll make angels in the snow 'til the snow begins to blow
Then we'll run inside and start a tickle fight
And if it's too cold to sled, we'll eat gingerbread instead
And then cuddle 'til he tucks me in at night

And we'll have our pictures taken
For the Christmas cards we're making
Him and me in suits of matching plaid
And when people see us walking
They'll be googled-eyed and gawking
At Buddy and the world's greatest dad

(Good luck, Buddy, hope you find your dad)
(Thanks, Mr. Narwhal!)

We'll spend mornings holding hands
Holding hands and making plans
On whether to play jacks or kick the can
Then for lunch a gingersnap, then a nap to fill the gap
Between building forts and playing Superman

And if his back gives him a spasm
Well, every good dad has 'em
I'll bring him cocoa and a heating pad
It's a scene inside a snow globe, it's a very apropos globe
Just Buddy and the world's greatest dad

Wow!

Santa, Santa! Oh, no, no, no, no, not Santa, sorry
(Check it out, check it out)
Thank you, thank you
(Taxi)
Whoa, you did it! World's best souvlaki!
Congratulations, that's quite an accomplishment

We'll share a whole fruitcake slice by slice
Making sure not one single crumb drops (get outta here, freak)
And if I were to say, "I'm in a Christmas play"
He wouldn't miss it for a million gumdrops (oh)

When I fall and scrape my knee
He will kiss that knee for me
And make that boo-boo better in a jiff
If I should get a cold or just allergies from mold
He'll gesundheit me with his own handkerchief

And if ever things turn gloomful
I'll know that there's a roomful
Of hugs and jokes to make it seem less bad
I can't hide my admiration for that perfect combination
Of Buddy and the world's greatest dad

So I'm gonna try my best to be
Everything you'd expect of me
I promise that I won't stop until I'm done
So someday you can say I'm the world's greatest son
