  • Lyrics :)
    (please let me know if lyrics are bad, I'll correct them)
    My child arrived just the other day
    He came to the world in the usual way
    But there were planes to catch and bills to pay
    He learned to walk while I was away
    And he was talkin' 'fore I knew it, and as he grew
    He'd say "I'm gonna be like you dad
    You know I'm gonna be like you"
    And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
    Little boy blue and the man on the moon
    When you comin' home dad?
    I don't know when, but we'll get together then son
    You know we'll have a good time then
    My son turned ten just the other day
    He said, "Thanks for the ball, Dad, come on let's play
    Can you teach me to throw", I said "Not today
    I got a lot to do", he said, "That's ok"
    And he walked away but his smile never dimmed
    And said, "I'm gonna be like him, yeah
    You know I'm gonna be like him"
    And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
    Little boy blue and the man on the moon
    When you comin' home son?
    I don't know when, but we'll get together then son
    You know we'll have a good time then
    Well, he came home from college just the other day
    So much like a man I just had to say
    "Son, I'm proud of you, can you sit for a while?"
    He shook his head and said with a smile
    "What I'd really like, Dad, is to borrow the car keys
    See you later, can I have them please?"
    And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
    Little boy blue and the man on the moon
    When you comin' home son?
    I don't know when, but we'll get together then son
    You know we'll have a good time then
    I've long since retired, my son's moved away
    I called him up just the other day
    I said, "I'd like to see you if you don't mind"
    He said, "I'd love to, Dad, if I can find the time
    You see my new job's a hassle and kids have the flu
    But it's sure nice talking to you, Dad
    It's been sure nice talking to you"
    And as I hung up the phone it occurred to me
    He'd grown up just like me
    My boy was just like me
    And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon
    Little boy blue and the man on the moon
    When you comin' home son?
    I don't know when, but we'll get together then son
    You know we'll have a good time then

    The only thing I don't get about this song is why he did the chorus the way he did.
    1st 2: And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon. Little boy blue and the man on the moon. When you're coming home dad, I don't know when. But we'll get together then. You know we'll have a good time then.
    2nd 2: And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon. Little boy blue and the man on the moon. When you're coming home son, I don't know when. But we'll get together then dad. You know we'll have a good time then.
    If the first 2 are supposed to be the son talking to the dad and the second 2 are supposed to be the dad talking to the son, then why do the second 2 have dad instead of son?
    Can someone answer that for me?

      I believe the first 2 are the son talking and the second 2 are the dad talking.

    • @bornbredbermudian7643

      Yes, but also the actual chorus shows a convo between the son and dad. Like, 1st, 2nd: When you coming home, -Son asking. "Don't know when" -Dad answering.
      Second time around it's the dad asking, When you coming home? And the son responding.
