Lyrics of 'Father' by The Front Bottoms

I have this dream that I am hitting my dad
With a baseball bat
He is screaming and crying for help
And maybe halfway through
It has more to do with me killing him
Than it ever did protecting myself

And I believe that yeah, dad
Maybe no one is perfect
But I believe that you were pushing your luck
It just sucks it played out like this
A terrible movie
You can tell none of the actors even give a fuck

You look good tonight, girlfriend
Can I sleep in your bed?
And when I crawl out in the morning
Can I stay inside your head?

'Cause you were high school
And I was just more like real life
And you were okay, okay as a girlfriend
I was just more like his wife
I'll do the pushups
I'll wear the makeup
I'll do whatever he wants all night
'Cause you were okay, okay as a girlfriend
And I was just more like real life

A long, long time ago my great, great, great, great grandfather
Took something that did not belong to him
And that is why today I have an eagle in my veins
I am part native american
And I am leaving as soon as I come
As soon as I come you will probably forget my name
I hope I fall asleep at the wheel and crash my car on the way home
Or I could just stay here, because

But you look good tonight girlfriend
Can I sleep in your bed?
And when I crawl out in the morning
Can I stay inside your head?

'Cause you were high school
And I was just more like real life
And you were okay, okay as a girlfriend, girlfriend
But I was just more like his wife
I'll wear the makeup
I'll do the pushups
I'll do whatever he wants all night
'Cause you were okay as a girlfriend
And I was just more like real life
More like real life

But you were high school
And I was just more like real life
And you were okay, okay as a girlfriend, girlfriend
I was just more like his wife
And it is ok
I'll wear the makeup
I'll do whatever he wants all night
'Cause you were okay, okay as a girlfriend, girlfriend
But I was just more like real life
More like real life
