Still Fighting It - Ben Folds

good morning son
i am a bird 
wearing a brown polyester shirt 
you want a coke? 
maybe some fries? 
the roast beef combo's only nine ninety five 
but it's okay 
you don't have to pay 
i've got all the change 

everybody knows 
it hurts to grow up 
but everybody does 
it's so weird to be back here 
let me tell you what 
the years go on and 
we're still fighting it 
and you're so much like me 
i'm sorry 

good morning son 
twenty years from now 
maybe we'll both sit down 
and have a few beers 
and i can tell 
you about today 
and how i picked you up 
and everything changed 
it was pain 
sunny days and rain 
i knew you'd feel the same things 

everybody knows 
it sucks to grow up 
and everybody does 
and so weird to be back here 
let me tell you what 
the years go on and 
we're still fighting it 

you'll try and try 
and one day you'll fly 
away from me 

it was pain 
sunny days and rain 
i knew you'd feel the same things 

everybody knows 
it hurts to grow up 
and everybody does 
and so weird to be back here 
let me tell you what 
the years go on and 
we're still fighting it 
and you're so much like me 
i'm sorry
