lyrics

Uncle Michael knows
That as soon the wind blows
You'll be a man
It's not hard to understand
It's a part of nature's plan
That all life grows
Uncle Michael knows (x2)

There's a 50/50 chance that you were planned
And your mother's bank account is in the red
Your daddy's always golfing in japan
And your would be older brother,
He is dead

Uncle Michael vows
Though he doesn't quite know how
He'll be your rock
There's not much in his pocket
But he's got stock on a rocket
Into the clouds
Uncle Michael vows (x2)

There's a 50/50 chance that you were planned
And your mother's bank account is in the red
Your daddy's always golfing in japan
And your would be older brother,
He is dead

One day when you're old enough to drink
Tell loyal Uncle Michael what you think
"I say this with no quiver and no wink:
Uncle Michael, you're the reason I don't blink"

There's a 50/50 chance that I was planned
And my mother's bank account is in the red
My daddy's always golfing in japan
And my mother's younger brother's my best friend
