Cats In The Cradle (摇篮里的猫) - Ugly Kid Joe (丑孩子乔伊)
My child arrived just the other day;
Came to the world in the usually way
But there were planes to catch and bills to pay
He learned to walk while I was away
He was talking before I knew it
And as he grew he said
"I'm gonna be like you Dad
You know I'm gonna be like you "
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
"When you coming home "
"Son I don't know when
We'll get together then
You know we'll have a good time then "
Well my son turned ten just the other day
He said "Thanks for the ball Dad Come on let's play
Could you teach me to throw " I said "Not today
I got a lot to do " He said "That's okay "
And he walked away and he smiled he said
"You know
I'm gonna be like him yeah
You know I'm gonna be like him "
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
"When you coming home "
"Son I don't know when
We'll get together then
You know we'll have a good time then "
Well he came from college just the other day
So much like a man I just had to say
"I'm proud of you Could you sit for a while "
He shook his head and he said with a smile
"What I'd really like Dad is to borrow the car keys
See you later Can I have them please "
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
"When you coming home "
"Son I don't know when
We'll get together then
You know we'll have a good time then "
I've long since retired my son's moved away
I called him up just the other day
"I'd like to see you if you don't mind "
He said "I'd love to Dad if I could find the time
You see my new job's a hassle and the kids have the flu
But it's sure nice talking to you Dad
It's been sure nice talking to you "
And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me
He'd grown up just like me
My boy was just like me
(Yeah yeah yeah)
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
"When you coming home "
"Son I don't know when
We'll get together then
You know we'll have a good time then "
And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
Little boy blue and the man in the moon
"When you coming home "
"Son I don't know when
We'll get together then
You know we'll have a good time then "
