Wrong strategy.

It's a real shame
A stupid exam
Is tearing apart
My heart
Cause my relationship with my dad
Is going really bad
Our relationship of father and son
Is now gone
Yesterday
I ran away
From home
Why can't he leave it alone
I couldn't believe it went this far
I was tired of being at war
He was oppressing me
Probably thinking he was doing what's best for me.

We saw each other on Sunday
Everything went OK
I came home yesterday
But he never decided to change his ways
He considers me as a little boy
And won't let me enjoy
My majority
God this is shitty
He even took away my babe calendar
Cause you see teenagers
Shouldn't be thinking
About f-u-c-k-i-n-g
Well what do you think I do
With my girl just "bisous bisous"
You must be kidding
At 15 I already stopped joking
So don't give me that bullshit
Why don't you admit it
That you're wrong cause I've now grown up
And that's why I'm fed up
Why do you redo
What your parents did to you
Can't you see that you're too strict
And that you're acting like a prick
I mean it's obvious
That all this is ridiculous
No music after 10:30
Oh come on daddy
Music can apease
Jeez
No way to make him change his mind
And I thought you were kind
But now I realize
That to my eyes
You've never been
Really a kin
You were much more of a work supervisor
Already in Vietnam you were my terror
Quite often I went to bed early
Just in order for you not to check on me.

My best years were
In boarding school where
I could schedule when
I wanted to stay zen
And when I wanted to work
On my homework.

So you see
It's really not a great strategy
You believe I'm gonna fail
And that's why I feel in jail
But take a look at my past
In every class I was one of the last
Buckle up for the flashback
Here I am every year keeping up with the pack
Yep each time I succeeded
Whereas my silly teachers thought indeed
That I was a loser
And would end up a beggar
But all of you were wrong
And I protest with this song
I would like a normal living
So please stop acting
As a child and be the dad
I've never had.

PS: Bisous in french means kiss.
