FUCK FOR A LIVING

I had a pretty average childhood
You know, it wasn’t half bad
Normal brother, normal mum
Then there was me Dad
See my Dad’s Kevin Bloody Wilson
A pretty funny bugger to
A comedian who swears a little a bit
He just talks the way us bastards do
I was 6 years old at St Mary’s
It was Dad and Daughter day
All us girls holding our Daddy’s hands
To march in the big parade
Then we’d head back to the classroom
To talk about our Daddy’s and their jobs
To tell everyone that our Daddy was the best
And we’d brag and show them off
Sally’s Dad’s a fireman
She proudly told us so
Anna loves her doctor Daddy
And wanted the world to know
My turn next I showed that lot
I was all excited and grinning
You can shove all those boring jobs up your arse
My Dad says FUCK for living!
Fuck for a living
That beats all your dad’s hands down
Some say I was raised in a mental home
But it was a fucking funny house!
Your Dad’s a doctor
Your Dad’s a lawyer
Your Dad drives a truck
Oh but mine says FUCK for a living!
Mine Says FUCK for a living
It always kept things interesting
Like having a swear jar
If we said shit we got to take a dollar out
When I was 7 I bought me first car!
Sometimes I’d get busted at school
For telling dirty jokes
The nuns would shit over what I’d said
And send a stern note home
I’d give it to me mum
And she’d shake her head and frown
Then I’d show it to me Dad
He’d tear up he got so proud
He’d say my girls a cheeky little shit
It’s a talent that’s god-given
It takes some knack to swear like that
And sat FUCK for a living
CHORUS
And now that I’m older I think it’s pretty clear
Why I turned out like I did
Dad calls me his retirement fund
Get out there and work it kid
So I’m giving it me best shot
And I’m loving every minute
It’s the family trait now I get paid
To say FUCK for a living
Your Dad’s a teacher
Your Dad’s a preacher
Fuck for living
A politician and electrician
Fuck for living
Your Dad’s a banker
Your Dad’s a wanker
Fuck for a living
