Venus & Serena

(album: Phantom Power - 2003)

[Son:]
Father, father I have sinned
I dunno where to begin
Give me words of advice
I'll save them up for a clear day

[Father:]
Keep your eye upon the ball
Write your thoughts upon the wall
There's some words of advice
Save them up for a clear day

Venus and Serena understand

Flushing meadows down the stream
Living life as though it's a dream
Eat the future today
Don't save it up for a rainy day

Holy bombs make holy holes
Holy holes make homeless moles
Take the turtle and hare
Don't run around if you can walk there

Venus and Serena understand

[Son:]
Father, father, father, father can't you see?
I'm a walking tragedy
Father, father, father when I look to the past
I never realized that it wouldn't last

Venus and Serena understand
(Venus and Serena understand)

[Father:]
I've one final thing to say
I'm not your father anyway
Found you under a cloud
Left outside by the wolves one day, hey
