How I’d love to be my Dads son

Dad, buy me that toy

Dad, I want that shoe 

Dad, we have a trip

Dad, please send me money 

Dad, come bail me out


Dad, there’s someone I want you to meet 

Dad, help me buy land

Dad, my wife did this 

Dad, my wife doesn’t respect me

Dad, you’ll be a grandpa soon


Dad, we need to have you checked 

Dad, I’m sure you’ll love this coat 

Dad, I love you 

Dad, it’s too soon, please stay a little longer 

Dad, till we meet again, 

Dad, rest in peace 


All this stages makes a father a dad

How I wish you were ready for the task

How I wish you were ready to be called dad

How I wish you were ready to be my dad
