Karaoke Track: Like Father, Like Son by Aida (musical) (Pocket Songs)

Boserl

Don&#39;t come on so cocksure boy
You can&#39;t escape your genes
There&#39;s no point in feeling pure boy
Your background intervenes

Now listen good
And listen straight

You&#39;re not the master
0f your fate

To this you must be reconciled

You&#39;ll always be
Your fathers child

At times acclaimed
At times reviled

You&#39;ll wind up doing

Just as I have done
Like father, like son

IRadamesl

Don&#39;t assume your vices

Get handed down the line
That a parent&#39;s blood suffices
To condemn the child&#39;s design

I&#39;ve done wrong, I can&#39;t deny
But at least I know that I
I shouldn&#39;t blame that on my stock
Well this may come as quite a shock

I&#39;m no chip off any block
I wouldn&#39;t wish

Those words on anyone
Like father, like son

IZoserl

Son you&#39;re nervous, take my hand

All is settled, all is planned

You&#39;ve got the world
At your command

I don&#39;t think you understand

IRadamesl
I appreciate too well

The squalor at which you excel
It isn&#39;t very hard to tell
Evil&#39;s a distinctive smell

Boserl

He&#39;s lost all sense of reason
And why? Some foreign slut
That is the road called treason
Some doors are slamming shut

Nowjust like me
He&#39;s found that flesh

Can excite but will enmesh

Once we rid him of this blight
Once this harlot&#39;s out of sight.
Then I think he&#39;ll see the light.

He won&#39;t walk back
To daddy he&#39;ll run.

Like father, like son

Like father, like son
Like father, like son

Like father, like son
Son...
