You'd Better Sit Down Kids

You'd better sit down kids I'll tell you why

You might not understand kids just give it a try

Now how should I put this, I've got something to say

You're mother is staying but I'm going away

No we're not mad kids, it's hard to say why

Your mother and I, kids don't see eye to eye

Be sure you say your prayers before you go to bed

Make sure you get yourself to school on time

I know you'll do the things your mother ask

She's gonna need you boys to stay in line

Keep in mind your mother's gonna need your help

A whole lot more than she ever did before

No more fights over little things

'Cause I won't be there to stop them anymore

I know you don't want this, well, neither do we

But sometimes things happen that we can't foresee

So try to become kids and don't look so sad

Just 'cause I'm leaving I'll still be your dad

Just remember I love you and though I'm not here

Just call if you need me and I'll always be near

Well, I have to go now so kiss me goodbye

My eyes are just red, kids, I'm too big to cry
