You surely are a truly gifted kid 
But you're only good as 
The last great thing you did 
And where've you been since then 
Did the schedule get you down 
I hear you've got a new girlfriend 
How's the wife taking it? 

If it's uphill all the way 
You should be used to it by now 
You must know me, Father it's your son 
And I know that you are proud
Of everything I've done 
But it's the wonders I perform, 
Pulling rabbits out of hats 
When sometimes I'd prefer 
Simply to wear them 

If it's uphill all the way 
You should be used to it and say 
My back is broad enough sir 
To take the strain and it's 

Hello mother, it's your son 
And aren't you proud, of all I've done 
But I'm turkey hungry, I'm chicken free, 
And I can't break dance on your knee 
But it's "stay right there son, baby do", 
While I is itchin' for something new 
So watch me hawk eye, understand 
The force of will, the sleight of hand 
Movin' the river, 
I'm turkey hungry, I'm chicken free 
And I can't break dance on your knee 
Movin' the river, 
Bucket by spoon, 
And do you think that they'll like me 
When they learn what I do 

Movin' the river, 
Money for jam, 
But it takes such an effort 
To stay where I am
