Did you hear mother --
  saying I'm wrong but I know I'm right.
  Did you hear father?
  Calling my name into the night.
  Saying I'll never be what I am now.
  Telling me I'll never find what I've already found.
  It was they who were wrong,
  and for them here's a song.
    Did you hear baby --
  come back and tell you the things he's seen.
  Did it surprise you
  to be picked up at eight in a limousine?
  Doing the things he's accustomed to do.
  Which at one time it seemed like a dream
  now it's true.
  And unknowing
  you made it all happen this way.
    Did you hear mother --
  saying I'm wrong but I know I'm right.
  Did you hear father?
  Calling my name into the night.
  Saying I'll never be what I am now.
  Telling me I'll never find what I've already found.
  It was they who were wrong
  and for them here's a song.
