letra de man of the house - jorge rivera-herrans

[odysseus]
when i turned nine, my dad pulled me aside and said
“son, i’m going insane
i’m losing my mind, don’t have too much time and soon you’ll take over my reign
your cunningness will make you tough, cause bravery is not enough”
i could tell his time was getting shorter, his voice was getting weak, he could barely speak
and all i could think was

where is he?
where is the man who was larger than life?
where is he?
where is the man who was sharp as a knife?
cause in my darkest days, the pain was my drive
time is fleeting, it’s running out
time to be the man of the house

at the age of thirteen, i began the first king of ithaca and did it with pride
the years passed by and it clearly was time for me to find a faithful bride
everybody wanted helen of sparta, i wanted someone smarter
part of her family tree was the girl for me
a girl i would give the world to see (penelope)

she made every heart in our vicinity soar, felt like infinity roars
she was the first thing i had an affinity for
she’s what i saved my virginity for
oh, she was the cleverest girl i’d ever seen
articulate, serene, the wittiness of my dreams, i wanted to scream
and long before we had a chance to meet
i knew we were thinking the same thing, we were wondering
where is he?
where is the man who’ll have you to wife?
where is he?
where is the man with whom you’ll spend your life
cause in my darkest days, penelope’s my drive
time is fleeting, it’s running out
time to be the man of the house
