I know that I was a louse

And a loafer

You won't get a fight

I agree

I was a bold brick

A goof-off no good

So how did this happen to me

Proud of your boy

I hope you're proud of your boy

Cause' I don't feel any taller

Or smarter

Or handsome or wise

And now I know what I have to do

How can I be a prince

When it isn't true

So I will try to try hard

To make you proud

Of your boy
