I came from a genius and I am my father's son
Too bad he was psycopath
And now I'm the next in line
Then theres's dear mother, yeh Shirley (surely)
She's a work of art
Never got top dollar, but she gave us all our start
Can I get a reprieve?
This gene pool drowing me
Can I beg a release?
I'm a volunteer amputee
From the moment I fail
I call on DNA
Why such betrayal?
Got me tooth and nail
Yeh, How's about one conversation
With nothing else left to be had?
With this your young long lost son
And his never had dear old dad
Forget the insemination
And that, I'm supposed to be glad?
What a pity you left us so soon
To climb your montain of regret
Can I get a reprieve?
This gene pool drowing me
Can I beg a release?
I'm a voluteer amputee
From the moment I fail
I call on DNA
Why such betrayal?
Got set sail
All the bright lights shining
As you're trying to breathe in thin air
Cannot forget you're hiding
Collected wounds left unhealed
When every thought you're thinking
Sinks you darker than a new moon sky
The far away lights rising
In the whites of your eyes
Now father you're dead and gone
And I'm finally free to be me
Thanks for all your fucked-up gifts
For which I got no sympathy
Now I'm living in a war torn place
Hear the bombs, a 5th Symphony
Thanks for this and thanks for that
Gotta let go legacy
Can I get a reprieve?
This gene pool drowing me
Can I beg a release?
Can I a voluteer amputee
From the moment I fail
I call on DNA
Why such betrayal?
I gotta set sail
