The Last Son.

Tell me father once again Of how it used to be Back when man could walk the land About birds and fish and trees Tell me about the oceans About trains and boats and cars And how people used to meet At shopping malls and bars Tell me about the writers And the stories that they wrote The books that became movies About the languages that they spoke Tell me about the weather And the sun that warmed your face Then the snow that fell from skies About the cold that took warms place Tell me about the people All the colors that they be Then tell me about eyes again And what it is to see Tell me father tell me please Just tell me once again Father,Father! oh father Father is this the end
