Styx Lyrics

"Father O.S.A." lyrics


Album: STYX II

father
you're a sad old man
your tawdry vest is gray

memories
of a former man
are all your words convey

father
oh can't you see
the tarnished robe you wear

a crown
for fools
the people laugh
you never seem to hear

father
you're life's a ship
that's never been to sea

the bottle
that surrounds your life
you'll sail eternally

[keyboard solo]

children
please understand
a man must stand alone

and face a world
he'll never know
and never call his own

ba ba bum bum
[continue echo]

father
[continue echo]
