Good Riddance - Steps
When I beat my head against the wall of convention
the blood I taste is everyone's
I fought a battle thought unpopular

when mother cries all day
I'll wipe those tears away

for every father holding back the angry fire until five
when it festers on the drive
his boss has shamed him to tears
he should "take it like a man" but he never had a man to tell him
