James Snyder - Hey Kid Lyrics
Josh:Hey, kidEveryone’s waiting on you, kidEveryone’s wond’ring what you’ll do, kidIt’s true kidMe too, kidHey, kidWe’re so excitedJust to know you’ll soon be hereSay – kidWe’re both delightedThough that may not seem so clearBut I did my o.b. rotationSo I know the ins and outsAnd you're an act of God’s creationSo I'm fine with all the doubtsI'm a doctor and a soldierI've been shelled, and under fireBut kidIf I say that you don't scare me, I'm a liarNow kidYou did surprise meThough I know the facts of lifeWow, kidIt terrifies meJust to say “My pregnant wife”‘Cause kid, I gotta tell yaI'm not ready – not a bitThere's this macho act I’ll sell yaWhile inside I lose my shitIt’s not that I don't want you‘Cause I do, despite my fearsBut kidIs it true you’ll stick around for eighteen years?Then the call comes on the iPhoneI grab a cab cross townI find her on the fourth floorAnd they’ve got her in the gownShe’s never looked less lovelyShe’s a grump and she’s got gasAnd the labor’s eighteen hoursOh my God, kid, move your assThen at last you make your entranceAnd, well, kid, you're quite a sightI’ll be honest – you're disgustingBut I know that you're all rightThough you're screaming and you're spittingAnd I can't quite see your charmsThey clean you and they clothe youAnd they put you in my armsAnd I realize, in an instantThat I've known you all alongThat I've wanted you foreverThat I’ll never do you wrongAnd whatever this world comes toAnd whatever comes our wayI will watch you, and protect youI promise, kid, we’ll be okayWe’ll be okayWe’ll be okayHeyKidI feel like yellingRing the bell and bang the drumSay, kidThere's just no telling all the things that you’ll becomeAnd I think we’ll have some fun hereYour mom, and you, and meAnd before your time is done hereKid of mine, I hope you’ll seeThat this life is what you make itIt’s cliche, which means it’s trueAnd kidIt makes my life to know I helped make youAs a father, kid, I may not have a clueBut your mom and me will somehow muddle throughIf my ***** dad could do it, I can tooIn fact, I’ll do better, I’ll start new‘Cause kidMy kidOur kidI love you
