You surely are a truly gifted kid

But you're only good as

The last great thing you did

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 breakdance on your knee

But it's stay right there son, baby do

While I is itching for something new

So watch me hawkeye and understand

The force of will, the sleight of hand

Moving the river

I'm turkey hungry, I'm chicken free

Moving the river

And I can't breakdance on your knee

Moving the river

Bucket by spoon

And do you think that they'll like me

When they learn what I do

Moving the river

Money for jam

And it takes such an effort

To stay where I am and it's

Stay right there son, baby do

While I is itching for something new

So watch me hawkeye and understand

The force of will, the sleight of hand

Moving the river

I'm turkey hungry, I'm chicken free

Moving the river

And I can't breakdance on your knee

Moving the river

Moving the river
