The Nest Is On Fire Lyrics

Daddy, daddy, what can I say?
You're not the man that I wanted to be.
Mother dear, what can you do?
I never wanted to be like you.
Holy preacher, the only thing you say
is how I'm living my life the wrong way.
Can't forget teacher who knows it best,
prove my worth with a standardized test.
I hate it but I think you're right.
There's some things in life you can't fight.
So don't complain about what I do.
The way I am is because of you.
