One, two, three, one

I cook and I clean now

I do different things than I used to do

Feel I'm always rinsin' dishes

I load them and I think about you

I imagine my mom and dad

Loosely neckin' in the back of a taxi cab

I'd give everything I'll ever have to see them happy

Kissin' just like that

And oh, I can watch it in the movies

I don't wanna see it that crafted and clear

Wanna be the pervert driver

Gazin' at them through a tilted mirror

I stay up, I play Backgammon now

Not to dirty a glass, I drink straight from the spout

I sleep through the night now

On the medication you left at my house

I miss you like the soft spot at the top of my baby skull's rose

I miss you like my fontanels

I miss you like my openness that closed

Now I'll tell you a secret

A secret that everyone already knows

You remind me of my father

Your attitude, your disheveled clothes

Thinkin' of you makes me happy

Happy that my father, he got free

That even though it hurt me

He can be whoever the hell he wants to be

You see, a free man can be a relied on

Trusted not to let go of the bike

Nothin' stickin' his feet to the ground

No one's holdin' a string to his kite
