letra de henry and jason - geoff berner

Loading...

i had the flu real bad last winter
had a dream about a father and his son
henry who was 42
and jason who had just turned 21

henry thought “my god, my son’s exactly half my age!”
and the more the thought about it
the more he flew into a rage
he’s the same age i was when i had him
now my secrets are no longer safe

but i’ll change
i’ll change
i’ll change
i’ll change
i’ll change so much
you won’t even recognize me

jason was just 9 the day his mother laid dying of
toxic shock
henry walked out of the hospital
and stopped outside a bar just down the block

where an empty stool sat waiting
for a man down on his luck
ten years of sobriety
turned into what the f-ck
it wasn’t fair of her to die and leave me all alone to screw things up

but i’ll change

everything’s gonna be alright
everything’s gonna work out fine
close your eyes, here’s a kiss good night
you know i love you

jason made good money dealing c-ke
but quit when he had children of his own
but he lost his shirt on christmas trees
and had to move his family back home

now henry sees his grandchildren running ’round the house
“can’t you shut those kids up!?”
he screams at jason’s spouse
jason’s gone for nine whole days
and finally shows up beaten up and stoned

but i’ll change
