Artist : Lenny kravitz Song : Like father like son
Written by: Elton John/Tim Rice
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Don`t come on so cocksure boy, you can`t escape
your genes
No point in feeling purer boy, your background
intervenes
Listen good and listen straight, you`re not the
master of your fate
To this you must be reconciled, you`ll always be
your father`s child
At times acclaimed, at times reviled
You wind up doing just what I`ve done
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Don`t assume your vices get handed down the line
That a parent`s blood suffices to condemn the
child`s design
I`ve done wrong, I can`t deny, but at least I
know that I
Shouldn`t blame that on my stock, this may come
as quite a shock
But I`m no chip off any block, I wouldn`t wish
those words on anyone
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Son, you`re nervous, take my hand
All is settled, all is planned
You`ve got the world at your command
I don`t think you understand
Just have the slave if you must, and be done with
her
Don`t ever speak of her like that again
I appreciate too well, the squalor at which you
excel
It isn`t very hard to tell, evil`s a distinctive
smell
From this day on I choose my own way
If I choose to be with Aida, then I will be
And no one, not you, not even the gods can stop
me
He`s lost all sense of reason, and why some
foreign slut
Not only is that treason, some doors are slamming
shut
Just like me, he`s found that flesh can excite
but will it mesh
Watch me rid him of this blight, once the
harlot`s out of sight
Then I think he will see the light
He won`t walk back to daddy, he will run
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
Like father, like son
