Don't Be a Dead Beat Dad!

I feel like posting these song lyrics to all the Dads who are MIA on Father's Day..

Don't Be a Dead Beat!

Always talkin 'bout the big deal
Grandiosity to growns
For yourself showing you don't care
Till you want to feel like home

No reply on the other end of the phone

Don’t be a dead beat
Your word is incomplete
You had everything
And you gave it away
Don’t need a dead beat
This ship has finally sailed
I try not to be angry but I've got to ask...

Is that really who you wanna be?
Just a dead beat?
Don't be a dead beat dad!

Tell me how's that working for you?
Boy you really show your ah...
Hiding underneath the table
All you'll ever get is scraps

No return never paying back tax

Don't be a dead beat!
Will you ever complete?
You start so many things
Keep running away
Don't need a dead beat
This ship has finally sailed
I try not to be angry but I've got to ask... 
Is that really who you wanna be?
Just a dead beat? 
Don't be a dead beat dad!

Actions speak..Checks in the mail?
Always blaming someone else
Missing disappointing them
Trading love you’ve lost yourself

You choose that dead beat
Your word is incomplete
You had everything
Why'd you give it away?
Don't need a dead beat!
This ship has finally sailed
I try not to be angry but I've got to ask...
Is that really who you wanna be?
Is that really who you wanna be?
Man up man 
Step up and be a good Dad
