Parental exercise

Mother, what is happening?
We dance and we laugh and we sing
Our night through the mourning
But forget to pass the beer

I think we surpassed the moment
Of stupidity like a child's
The ground bared his heaviness to me
From an end that is too near

Father, where is your name?
We saw your house burning out
When you rock and rolled the fame
Didn't you know sunrise gave you up?

But life came back to call
Upon our misfortune, I swear
Eat the laugh, drink to the hair
It's you who has to do a job

Mother, do you observe at night?
We tease and we sleaze and we feast
Like there is no tomorrow
But what if we are right?
