Dad of the Year

When I was a child, I wanted to be special

Thought that I could be a big, big star

Then I got older and saw how the world works

Someone like me can only go so far

I'm not gonna be on the cover of a magazine

I got bills to pay

I gotta keep working every day

I'm not gonna go down in history

Only my family will remember me

Now when I wake up and it's still dark

I think about when I was cool

Have a cup of coffee, turn off the news

It's time to take the kids to school

I'm not the leader of any social scene

I got bills to pay

I gotta keep working every day

The only award that I am gonna see

Is from my family, and that should be enough for me

And I sit at my desk

And it all seems so clear

The only prize I'm gonna get is dad of the year

(Dad of the year)

Dad of the year

Dad of the year
