lyrics

Oh Georgie boy, don’t you know it’s spring?
Walking out, out on to the ice
Don’t you feel, don’t you feel it cracking -
What it means to be a man.

Why'd you bring the knife with you,
What the hell were you going to do?

You got yourself out, you’re not coming back in
Your da and you, there’s two shadows behind you.

You’re not like him, you’ll never be like him.

Your father’s father’s father has eyes like yours
Like you don’t have his flaws.

Oh Georgie boy, you got to keep running
Through the snow like we're children
Don’t you feel, don’t you feel it cracking -
what he meant as a man.

Why'd you bring the knife with you,
What the hell were you going to do?

You got yourself out, you’re not coming back in
Your da and you, there’s two shadows behind you.

You’re not like him, you’ll never be like him
It’s so long ago, all so long ago

Your father’s father’s father has eyes like yours
Like you don’t have his flaws.
