My Father Does Not Care

My father does not careIn the same way my wife's eyes glaze overon NFL Game Day, he does not careLike talking stocks with six year-old childrenIt's not that they don't wanna listenit's that they don't careLike a butcher at a vegan farmer's marketA sober man at an Irish barLike me at your escape room birthday party, he does not careI called my dad when I got my first record deal inI was very excited, lots of emotions and feelingsI said, "Dad, I made it and the check is pretty big"I said, "Dad, you're gonna have a very successful kidSo I'ma buy a house, I'ma buy you one, tooWith a gate, and the clickers, and the big, open rooms"I said, "Dad, don't you worry, this is just the beginningThe tables are tipping, we're finally winning"He responded like, like my 85 year-old grandmacompletely unamusedWith an iPhone in her hand like, "What does this even do? "Like an American at a criquet match, confusedHe said, "Son, that's fantastic, I'm so happy for you"You see, my father does not care about anything but my heartHe knows that wealth an wroth have always beensuper far apartAnd when I showed him my BMW had the new push starHe faked enthusiasm terribly like, "Yeah... great car... "My father's eyes light up when I talk about my soulHe wants details of every kid I sang to at the hospitalAnd we could talk for hours about anythingI've ever done for the homelessAnd when my prayer game is strongand I'm sent there, he noticesSee, the thing about sons, we just wanna make our dads proudWe know the songs they likeand then we sing those extra loudI'm pretty clear on how to get my father's attention nowBe of service to myself or to others, that's howNow, some day I might be massivewith my face up in Times SquareBut when I fly, I only fly private, through the airSome day, I might become a bajillion-gazillionaireBut the best part is that my father does not care
