Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All right, people
We're gonna have a rock 'n' roll party tonight
Here we go
[Verse 2]
I been thinkin' about you
I been meanin' to tell you
Sit down with me let's have a drink
Back when the war ended
Your great grandfather hand wrote
Letters of apology to all of those
Families of men who crewed that U-Boat
Haunted till his death by that long night off the coast
Your other great-grandad came back from Arnhem
Transformed into a damaged and violent man
Never spoke of the slaughter he witnessed firsthand
Ah, this is the world I brought you into man
[Verse 3]
All remorse, no rebel
A shell of my former shell
Sit down with me, let's have a drink
[Verse 4]
What have we here?
The dreaded failed Imagineer?
His private dismay on public display
Son, do not be alarmed by your old man's tears
Hey, old man, it's okay
Every dog has his day
[Verse 5]
Sit down with me let's have a drink
I've been thinkin' about you
I been meanin' to tell you
Sit down with me let's have a drink
