Alex Cameron - Stepdad lyrics
[Alex Cameron - Stepdad lyrics]
And now that you know why I'm leavin'
And your mum's yelling out that she
Hopes I don't come back
Of course she would say that
Don't forget what I told
You about your demons
They're just thoughts in your
Head while you sleep, no more than that
Now fetch my duffle bag
If my ride ain't here, then it's coming
I can feel it not so far away
And I know you're angry, youngen
Dry your eyes up or you won't see
Big dog walking away
Now if you think I'm chasing the seasons
Like a van is some place to be
I'm your stepdad
And I know they say I'm scheming of leaving
Dreaming my life away
But if you see my name in the headlines
And they're all pissing on me
I'm your stepdad
And I know they say I'm frail and broken
But you can't treat your mom that way
I'll tell you how I got to Memphis
Saw your mum on a TV show and that was that
Both my bags were packed
I could put you to sleep just by reading
Turn the living room into an avalanche
I loved to make you laugh
If the paps ain't here, then they're comin'
I can hear their flashes blast away
And I know you're tired, youngen
Time to wise up or you won't see
What your dad does for pay
Now if you think I'm chasing the seasons
Like a van is some place to be
I'm your stepdad
And I know they say I'm scheming of leaving
Dreaming my life away
But if you see my name in the headlines
And they're all pissing on me
I'm your stepdad
And I know they say I'm frail and broken
But you can't treat your mum that way
And your mum's yelling out that she
Hopes I don't come back
Of course she would say that
Don't forget what I told
You about your demons
They're just thoughts in your
Head while you sleep, no more than that
Now fetch my duffle bag
If my ride ain't here, then it's coming
I can feel it not so far away
And I know you're angry, youngen
Dry your eyes up or you won't see
Big dog walking away
Now if you think I'm chasing the seasons
Like a van is some place to be
I'm your stepdad
And I know they say I'm scheming of leaving
Dreaming my life away
But if you see my name in the headlines
And they're all pissing on me
I'm your stepdad
And I know they say I'm frail and broken
But you can't treat your mom that way
I'll tell you how I got to Memphis
Saw your mum on a TV show and that was that
Both my bags were packed
I could put you to sleep just by reading
Turn the living room into an avalanche

If the paps ain't here, then they're comin'

And I know you're tired, youngen
Time to wise up or you won't see

Now if you think I'm chasing the seasons
Like a van is some place to be

And I know they say I'm scheming of leaving

But if you see my name in the headlines
And they're all pissing on me

And I know they say I'm frail and broken
But you can't treat your mum that way
