Little Guy
Daddy, Daddy
Can we watch a movie?
The one you let me watch
When it was just you and me
Well I’d let you watch ‘Scream’ again
If you’d promise you won’t tell people
You’re gonna gut them like a fish
My little warrior princess
With boiling anger
You can’t conquer
Wise beyond your years
You’ve learned from you tears
This world you live in isn’t fair, is it?
I love to watch you grow into your potential
To watch you think and create
You’ve learned it’s a hard road
To walk against the norm
I’m so proud
You believe in yourself no matter what
You don’t care what they think about you
This is your life
You’re gonna live it
Never afraid to be who you are
You’re my little Jamie
But I could possibly
Be talking about me
Me myself and I
You’re my little guy
I still can’t believe how much you’re like me
I watch you replicate me
You’re loud
You’re sarcastic
But you’re fantastic
Insensitive and rude
With insurmountable attitude
There’s no mistaking
You’re my rude little dude
