Just Like Daddy
I went to school,
With my brother Goten,
It was Father's Day,
And everyone's dad came,
Since our father is gone,
I went with him,
All the kids said what they wanted to be when they grew up,
Almost all the kids,
Picked the same job that their dad had,
Then it was Goten's turn,
I had no clue what he would say,
Since our dad was dead,
What would he say?
What job would he pick?
Well he did just the same as everyone else,
He wanted the job his father had,
He said he was going to be just like daddy,
When he grows up,
He'll do his job and do it good,
He'll do it just like daddy,
He didn't say what the job was,
He just explained what he was supposed to do,
It was a job,
It just didn't sound normal,
No one could figure out what job he was talking about,
After he was done,
He came back and sat down,
The teacher asked,
"Goten what job did you want?"
And Goten said,
"I told you I'm going to have daddy's job,"
They all stared at him confused,
They all knew our dad was dead,
So what job was he talking about?
Even I was curious to know,
The teacher just looked at him and asked,
"What job does your dad have?"
Goten looked up at her and smiled,
"I'm gonna have daddy's job, I'm gonna be an angel and watch over Gohan and
mom,"
At that moment,
The whole class was quiet,
They all just stared at Goten,
The teacher had tears in her eyes,
Goten saw her crying and asked,
"Why are you crying? What did I do? Did I say something bad?"
I looked down at him,
At that confused little face,
"No Goten you picked the perfect job,
You'll be a great angel,
Don't worry you'll be a great angel,
Just like daddy."
