Moving the River

You surely are a truly gifted kid
But youre only good as
The last great thing you did
And whereve you been since then
Did the schedule get you down
I hear youve got a new girlfriend
Hows the wife taking it ?
If its uphill all the way you should be used to it by now
You must know me,
Father its your son
And I know that you are proud of everything
Ive done
But its the wonders
I perform,
Pulling rabbits out of hats
When sometimes
Id prefer
Simply to wear them
If its uphill all the way you should be used to it and say
My back is broad enough sir to take the strain and its
Hello mother, its your son and arent you proud, of all
Ive done
But Im turkey hungry,
Im chicken free, and
I cant breakdance on your knee
But its 'stay right there son, baby do', while
I is itchin for something new
So watch me hawkeye and understand the force of will, the sleight of hand
Movin the river,
Im turkey hungry,
Im chicken free and
I cant breakdance on your knee
Movin the river, bucket by spoon, and do you think that theyll like me when they learn what
I o Movin the river, money for jam, and it takes such an effort to stay where
I am. ..
