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 "
