Aida movie - Like Father, Like Son lyrics

<br>

Zoser: <br>

Don't come on so cocksure boy, you can't escape your genes <br>

No point in feeling pure boy, your background intervenes <br>

Listen good and listen straight, you're not the master of your fate <br>

To this you must be reconciled, you'll always be your father's child <br>

At times acclaimed, at times reviled <br>

You'll wind up doing just what I've done <br>

Like father, like son <br>

<br>

Radames: <br>

Don't assume your vices get handed down the line <br>

That a parent's blood suffices to condemn the child's design <br>

I've done wrong, I can't deny, but at least I know that I <br>

Shouldn't blame that on my stock, this may come as quite a shock <br>

I'm no chip off any block, I wouldn't wish those words on anyone <br>

Like father, like son <br>

<br>

Zoser: <br>

Son you're nervous, take my hand <br>

All is settled,all is planned <br>

You've got the world at your command <br>

I don't think you understand <br>

<br>

Radames: <br>

I appreciate too well <br>

The squalor at which you excel <br>

it isn't very hard to tell <br>

Evil's a distinctive smell <br>

<br>

Zoser: <br>

He's lost all sense of reason, and why? <br>

Some foreign slut <br>

That is the road called treason, <br>

Some doors are slamming shut <br>

Just like me he's found that flesh can excite but will enmesh <br>

Once we rid him of this blight. <br>

Once this harlot's out of sight. <br>

Then I think he'll see the light. <br>

He won't walk back to daddy he will run. <br>

Like father, like son...<br>

<br>
