Fantastic Toys And Corduroys

One day maybe
When I grow up
A son you will have found
When I change my ways
One of these days
I know I'll make you proud
What I never say
Because of busy days
Is all I want for you
I'm just not the best
At being friends
But that's what we should do
When I see you happy,
When you laugh
I'm never sad
Fantastic toys
And corduroys
Everything you gave
Took me to school
I tried to be cool
And you let me get away with it
What I want to say
A thing I pray
For you to shine inside
The fighting words
How they sound absurd
when it's you who gave me life
When I see you happy
When you laugh
I'm never sad
I don't want to be sad
And you shouldn't be sad
We shouldn't be sad
What I never say
Because of busy days
Is all I want for you
I want to love
Like a mother's son
To always see you through
When I see you happy
When you laugh
I'm never sad
We shouldn't be sad
