The Pants Song

Jeremy is in big, bad trouble right now

It's a trouble that he can't see

And I gotta help him somehow

I don't know what he wants

But I know what he needs

He'll need a dad so strong

To help him not slip away

I haven't been a dad for so long

But I think I'm ready today

Situation is grave

Now's the time to be brave

I'm gonna finally make that climb

One leg at a time

When you love somebody

You put your pants on for them

When you love somebody

You take a chance just for them

Chance just for them

If the road gets muddy

Focus on the goal

Till the rough stuff's gone

When you love somebody

You put your pants on

I need you 'cause I do not have the tools

To help him with what he's going through

And I know you know all the rules

But I'm not what he wants

But you're just what he needs

And this might be hard, I know

You just suck it up and go

When you love somebody

You put your pants on for them

When you love somebody

You take a stance just for them

Stance just for them

If the fight gets bloody

Just keep pushing through

Till the pain is gone

When you love somebody

You put your pants on

I need you to reach out to him

Jeremy won't listen to me

And I can't blame him, but

Someone has to watch his back

If I try harder to be his friend

You have to try harder to be his dad

There's a Kohl's down the street

I don't care what kind

Jeans, khaki, leather

You're not leavin' that store until you buy a pair!

You drive a hard bargain, son

When you love somebody

You put your pants on for them

Wear those pants

Somewhat reluctantly

Still ya gotta go!

When you love somebody

You put your pants on for them

Metaphorically

Or sometimes actual pants

Real, literal pants

It's a classic study

Of the things we do for our best friend

When you love somebody

You see it to the end

When you love somebody

The conclusion's forgone

When you love somebody

You put your big boy pants right on

You put your pants on
