terry scott taylor – sins of the fathers كلمات اغاني

[verse 1]
there’s that counter kid with the insufficient mustache
he’s another one of those bright and funny young know-it-alls
he’s got the fire of the immortal soul burning there in his bright, porcelain-blue eyes
he humors me, and like always, i just let it slide
sometimes i’m tempted to tell him, “hey kid, the world still goes on
even after we’ve p-ssed through it–long, long after we’re gone”

[chorus]
and who can avoid the sins of the fathers?
but you go ahead, kid
it’s your turn to walk on water

[verse 2]
well, i believe life is god’s gift but that the years have weight, and i’m logy and a little sluggish
my back’s bothering me again, and my bones are rigid
i feel sometimes like i’ve lived too many years, but then again not long enough
i could offer the boy some kind of words of wisdom
cliches about life being tough
tell him all about unrealized expectations or p-ss on a couple of tips
but i’ve learned after all these years, you can’t teach these young dogs new tricks

[chorus]
who can avoid the sins of the fathers?
but you go ahead, kid
it’s your turn to walk on water

[bridge]
i see this old world is fast becoming a place meant only for survivors
where the glands have replaced the heart and soul, and we act out our darkest desires
so here’s another prayer for the boy, for god’s mercy and his grace
for salvation and love and the courage to make the world a better place

[chorus]
and who can avoid the sins of the fathers?

[verse 3]
well, the kid smiles and pours me another cup of thick, bitter coffee
he’s caught in the sunlight through the window, and he looks like he’s from some other country
well, maybe not one that’s a part of this unbalanced, wounded world
with its wonders and sorrows and joys and miseries
i shuffle out and leave him to his hopes and dreams as i hang on to my memories
well . . . you hang on too, son

[chorus]
who can avoid the sins of the fathers?
but you go ahead, kid
it’s your turn to walk on water
do your best to undo the sins of the fathers
yeah, go ahead, kid
it’s your turn to walk on water
your turn to walk on water
your turn to walk on water
