LYRICS:
When I was a child, I wanted to be special
Thought that I could be a big, big star
Then I got older and saw how the world works
Someone like me can only go so far
I’m not gonna be on the cover of a magazine
I’ve got bills to pay
I’ve gotta keep working every day
I’m not gonna go down in history
Only my family, will remember me
Now when I wake up – and it’s still dark
I think about – when I was cool
Have a cup of coffee, turn off the news
It’s time to take the kids to school
I’m not the leader of any social scene
I’ve got bills to pay
I’ve gotta keep working every day
The only award that I am gonna see
Is from my family – and that should be enough for me.
And I sit at my desk
And it all seems so clear
The only prize I’m gonna get is
Dad of The Year
#TimHeidecker #OfficialMusicVideo
I’m not a dad, but boy it sure looks nice. I think I might like to become one. Any advice for a guy like me?
Music sucks
Whoa this is me lol. Thank you to whoever made this! Blast from this past. I wish I still had the files so I could remix. This was my attempt at making another Teenage Royalty bedroom version but more maximalist
Hell yeah
This song has been stuck in my head!
