Like father like son

by Elton John

Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Like father, like son

Don´t come on so cocksure boy, you can´t escape your genes
No point in feeling purer boy, your background intervenes
Listen good and listen straight, you´re not the master of your fate
To this you must be reconciled, you´ll always be your father´s child
At times acclaimed, at times reviled
You´ll wind up doing just what I´ve done
Like father, like son
Like father, like son

Don´t assume your vices get handed down the line
That a parent´s blood suffices to condemn the child´s design
I´ve done wrong, I can´t deny, but at least I know that I
Shouldn´t blame that on my stock, this may come as quite a shock
But I´m no chip off any block, I wouldn´t wish those words on anyone
Like father, like son
Like father, like son

Son, you´re nervous, take my hand
All is settled, all is planned
You´ve got the world at your command
I don´t think you understand

Just have the slave if you must, and be done with her
Don´t ever speak of her like that again

I appreciate too well, the squalor at which you excel
It isn´t very hard to tell, evil´s a distinctive smell

From this day on I choose my own way
If I choose to be with Aida, then I will be
And no one, not you, not even the gods can stop me

He´s lost all sense of reason, and why? some foreign slut
Not only is that treason, some doors are slamming shut
Just like me, he´s found that flesh can excite but will enmesh
Watch me rid him of this blight, once the harlot´s out of sight
Then I think he will see the light
He won´t walk back to daddy, he will run
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
