elton john - like father like son lyrics

like father, like son
like father, like son
like father, like son
don’t come on so c-cksure 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 -ssume 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 sl-t
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
