He was just a boy she said gaze into his eyes
Drove him to conformity you beat him but he doesn't cry
Now that he's a man she said he'll go out on his own
Doesn't want you close to him he just wants to be left alone

He has listened to you most of his whole life and
He's heard all your bullshit recycled far too many times

He was just a boy she said look what you have done
Made a copy of yourself your bitterness never helped no one
Now that he's a man she said he'll teach what he has learned
Student becomes into a teacher now look he's emotionally disturbed

He'll teach what he has learned
