Worthless

A rather cruel parody of Garth Brook's song Shameless

Well you're worthless
Useless to me
Won't do anything I tell you to
Not a damn thing at all

And I'm posting it here for all the world to see
Oh boy, you're the worst thing that's ever happened to me
Made me fall so far
So very far
When God gave you to me as a son

You know now I'm not a father who's ever been
Proud to brag about the lazy good for nothing you are
So insecure and unsure
Afraid to step out and live life on your own
Leeching off me and your mama ever since the day you were born
I won't you break us
I won't let you kill my pride
So if you won't get your sorry butt out now
Than maybe son I'll just have the police come do my dirty work for me

You're worthless, oh son, you don't have a prayer
Never will earn my love or respect
Cos I swear
Everytime I see you standin' there
I go down on my knees
Praying for the good lord above to go ahead and strike you dead already

And you never change
Never compromise
No hard your mother and I try to make you understand
Say you're a man
But we know otherwise
Just a boy pretending is all that you've ever been
Never done anything to please us

You see in all your life I've never found
What I could praise
What I was proud of you for
I tried to walk away from your mama before you were even born
But your grand daddy's shotgun had other plans

I have never seen anyone's life so out of control like yours
I'm too ashamed to ever tell anyone that you're my own
I have never seen anyone's life so out of control like yours
I'm too ashamed to ever tell anyone that you're my own
And you've made me a bitter
Such a bitter man
Wasted all these years
But it's my time now
I won't let you use me anymore
Son, I've never known more of a loser than you
Oh, you're worthless
God forgive me
But we both know it's true

You know you have't made my life easy
Never once said or admitted when you were wrong
If you got lost one day
Never came home again
I tell you this son
By this old man that you call your daddy
You would't be missed

I want you off my hands

You're worthless
All you want is my money and my food
Money and food that I will no longer give to you
You ungrateful little punk
So I'm gonna let your sorry ass go

Oh, you're worthless, worthless as a son can be
You make a total fool of me
I just want you to go

Oh, you're worthless
I just want you to go
Oh, you're worthless
Oh, I'm down on my knees
Praying everyday that soon my boy you'll drop dead
Worthless................
