My boy, you were a lonely one
My boy, you were not close to done
My boy, I hope you had your fun
My boy, last saw you under noonday sun

You asked "can I go play?"
I said "yes", wished you'd stay
under my wing, never see the light of day
now you've flown far, so far away

I hope you had your fun
I hope you had your fun
I hope you had your fun, with my noonday son

I still yell for you "time to come in"
I say grace, pray for my sins
Your meal grows cold, toss it in the bin
There's sharks in the water, watch for the fin
