Nothing to Say

Remember walking with you by my side
You were my papa and I was your pride
Now Ive got children and Im going gray
No time for talking I got nothin to say

Those Sunday dinners that we had at home
Now Ive got a house and Ive got friends of my own
We cant do tomorrow what we did yesterday
Its best that were going our separate ways, okay

How is your rheumatism
(Nothing to say)
How are your chilblains
(Nothing to say)
Hows aunty Mabel
(Nothing to say)
So far papa, I got nothin to say, okay

Those happy days we spent together
We thought our world would never change
How the days go by
And things will never be the same

You keep pretending that everythings fine
So you make small talk to help pass the time
But all the words that you spit from your face
Add up to nothin you got nothin to say

How are those noisy neighbors next door
Ill have to go soon cos Im getting bored
I gotta be home early to see a good play
So far papa, I got nothin to say

How is your life insurance
(Nothing to say)
How is your trade union
(Nothing to say)
How is your independence
(Nothing to say)
So for papa, I got nothin to say
