Lyrics My Old Man's Badge - Astronautalis

My Old Man's Badge

You say the world’s in shambles
And the kids have lost their minds
You can have your heroes
Your heroes they ain’t mine
They swear I’m just an idealist
And my faith- my faith is blind
They can have their heroes
Their heroes ain’t mine
My old man ain’t got no medals
He ain’t never saved no one’s life
But he worked his finger’s raw
To provide for his lovely wife
You say the world’s in shambles
And the kids have lost their mind
You can have your heroes
Your heroes ain’t mine
