Your eyes shone when I taught you C-major
You tried and tried 'till you got it right
Your first song, how you did me proud
You didn't see my nose bleed
It's better that you didn't
A man is judged by his deeds
A whole man is not what you need to see
A heart-shaped rice crispy treat
I hope you're still sweet at 14
Don't you ever forget how to sing
Grown-ups don't know many things
Hi-five, patting your little hand
Mine feels strong and capable
I like to make you feel that way
It makes me wanna be normal
Someone a woman and child could trust
You didn't see what I did in that bathroom
I'm afraid that's normal too, kiddo
An afternoon glass of milk
I hope you don't sour by 14
Don't you forget your first song
Grown-ups know it all wrong
You didn't see those parts of me
How can I raise you, my dream seed?
A man is judged by his deeds
A whole man is not what you need to see
A heart-shaped rice crispy treat
I hope you're still sweet at 14
Don't you ever forget how to sing
Grown-ups don't know many things
An afternoon glass of milk
I hope you don't sour by 14
I can't show you how to grow up
A grown man is a thing corrupt
