A Way To Thank Dad

Father's Day's a way to thank Dad
  For all the good times you two have had
Fixing your bike or cutting your hair
  Dad always showed you how much he cared

He helped you with homework, pinch-hit for Mom
  Surprised you with presents, stayed calm during Prom
Drove you to practice; picked you up at the end
  Adjusted your allowance so you'd not overspend

Dad's a pal and a mentor rolled into one
  Guiding your life like the moon and the sun
