Here he comes - Mother`s Pride

With the first ever satchel she bought him swinging by his side

With a headful of `get your laces tied` and `woe betide`
F C
With a year`s supply of sandwiches and fairy cakes
F C
That she provides for him to eat at dinner breaks
F Am G
It`s no suprise at all, at all the friends he makes
Am
His stomach aches

he`s Mother`s Pride

He`s presentable, well looked after

He`s domestically disastrous
F G C
He`s adorable - Mother`s Pride

Here he comes - Father`s Pride
C Dm
With a head filled up with devil dogs and genocide

Here he comes - Father`s Pride
C Dm
He`s showing all the kids his tickets for ringside
Bb F
He`ll always roam the yard looking for a fight
Bb F
He`ll pick on all the kids who`re twice his height
Bb Dm C
He`s the reason dinner ladies toss and turn at night
Dm C
Teacher`s Blight - Father`s Pride

He`s the image of his Dad
Bb F
Mickey Mouse meets Jack the Lad
Bb C F
He`s never sad - Father`s Pride
G Am
G Am
Here he comes Mother`s Pride
Here he comes Father`s Pride
Here he comes Mother`s Pride
Father`s Pride
His Mother`s Pride
