He was only one
Life had only just begun
At the age of four
Is when daddy left and locked the door
All through to ten
Sees mummy with the other men
That's when he lost the way
Never found the words to say
It just gets worse now
All through the teens
Was broken hearts and broken dreams
At 22
Oh he's into d** and sniffing glue
At 25
Just trying to keep the dreams alive
That's when he lost the way
Never found the words to say
It's always something
It's always something
He didn't know
Was the wrong thing
Oh but Junior knows, don't you know?
At 38
What do you know his wife is late
Didn't have the time
To sit and sing a nursery rhyme
At 54
As Junior's walking out the door
He said to me
Son, we write our own history
Just write yours better then mine
'Cause he tripped and he fell
Never listened very well
Lost his mind trying to find what he lost
And there's always something
It's always something
He didnt know
Was the wrong thing
Oh Junior knows, don't you know!
And there's always something
It's always something
He didnt know
Was the wrong thing
Oh Junior knows don't you know
