Father To Son — текст песни (The Alarm)

(One, two, three, four)

My father said "Son, now my life`s work is done
There`s a future for you, there`s a job to be done
Stop fighting the system `cause the system won`t break
Get your hair cut boy and learn from my mistakes"
Now I said to my father "Father give me a break
There`s a million more chances that I`m bom to take
I don`t want to die like I saw you die
In a dead end job in a dead end way"

How many years must I waste in these black times
How many years must I waste

Today I can`t find nothing nowhere
Tomorrow I might find something somewhere
Give me a future now
I need it so badly now
Oh For tomorrow

"These are times of recession" father said unto me
"Don`t you leave now my son, you`ll break our family"
I said, "I`ve got ideas that I cannot deny
If I stay I`ll be killed by the dreams on my mind."

How many years must I waste in these black times
How many years must I waste

Today I can`t find nothing nowhere
Tomorrow I might find something somewhere
Give me a future now
I need it so badly now
Oh for tomorrow

I see the signs of black times everywhere I run
I can`t can`t escape them
No matter how hard I try
I see these signs of black time everywhere I run
I can`t stand another day
I gotta move away
I gotta move away

Today I can`t find nothing nowhere
Tomorrow I might find something somewhere
Give me a future now
I need it so badly now
Oh for tomorrow
Oh for tomorrow
