We’re taught unconditional love    That blood is thicker than water    That a parent’s world would revolve    Always around their son or their daughter       You pretend I was your own    And even believed that you loved me    But were always threatened by some    Invisible blood line that only you could see       You took advantage of an outreached hand    And twisted it to meet your every need    “Gimme time to re-charge my batteries,    I’ll see her when she’s older and I’ll bounce her on my knee”       Well listen to me you ungrateful fool    Her comes a dose of reality    You’ll go to your grave a sad and lonely man    The door is now closed on your pathetic little plan       On and on and on and on it goes    It’s so easy to run away with nothing in tow       How can you ever sleep a wink at night    Pretending that everything is alright    And have the nerve to blame this mess on me       Never in my life have I seen someone    So Ignorant to the damage he has done    You’re the rotted root in the family tree       I tried your 4 bill therapy    I tried to make amends    But nothing could lure you out of your selfish shell again       Expecting everyone to bow and kiss your feet    Don’t you see respect is not a one way street    Blaming everyone for all that you’ve don e wrong    I’ll get my peace of mind when you hear this song       On and on and on and on it goes    And with every passing day true colors show       How can you ever sleep a wink at night    Pretending that everything is alright    And have the balls to blame this mess on me       Never in my life have I seen someone    Oblivious to the damage he has done    You’re the rotted root in the family tree       Watch where you walk    Don’t you dare cross the crooked step    Watch the way you talk    Don’t cross the crooked step       On and on and on and on it goes    Chauvinistic, heartless, selfish, cold       How can you ever sleep a wink at night    Pretending that everything is alright    And have the balls to blame this shit on me       Never in my life have I seen someone    So fucking blind to the damage he has done    You’re the rotted root in the family tree
