Anything Like Me Lyrics
I remember sayin'
I don't care either way
Just as long as he or she is healthy, I'm OK
Then the doctor pointed to
The corner of the screen
And said, "You see that thing right there"
"Well you know what that means"
And I started wonderin' who he was gonna be
And I thought heaven help us if he's anything like me
He probably climb a tree too tall
And ride his bike too fast
End up every summer wearin' somethin' in a cast
He's gonna throw a ball and break some glass
In a window down the street
He's gonna get in trouble
He's gonna get in fights
I'm gonna lose my temper and some sleep
It's safe to say that I'm gonna get my payback
If he's anything like me
I can see him right now
Knees all skinned up
With a magnifyin' glass
Tryin' to melt a Tonka truck
Won't he be a sight
With his football helmet on
That'll be his first love 'til his first love comes along
He'll get his heart broke
By the time he's in his teens
And heaven help him if he's anything like me
He'll probably stay out too late
And drive his car too fast
Get a speeding ticket
That he'll pay for mowin' grass
He gonna get caught skippin' class
And be grounded for a week
He's gonna get in trouble
We're gonna get in fights
I'm gonna lose my temper and some sleep
It's safe to say that, I'm gonna get my payback
If he's anything like me
He's gonna love me, and hate me
Along the way
The years are gonna fly by
I already dread the day
He's gonna hug his momma
He's gonna shake my hand
He's gonna act like he can't wait to leave
But as he drives out
He'll cry his eyes out
If he's anything like me
There's worse folks to be like
Oh, he'll be alright
If he's anything like...
...Me
I don't care either way
Just as long as he or she is healthy, I'm OK
Then the doctor pointed to
The corner of the screen
And said, "You see that thing right there"
"Well you know what that means"
And I started wonderin' who he was gonna be
And I thought heaven help us if he's anything like me
And ride his bike too fast
End up every summer wearin' somethin' in a cast
He's gonna throw a ball and break some glass
In a window down the street
He's gonna get in trouble
He's gonna get in fights
I'm gonna lose my temper and some sleep
It's safe to say that I'm gonna get my payback
If he's anything like me
Knees all skinned up
With a magnifyin' glass
Tryin' to melt a Tonka truck
Won't he be a sight
With his football helmet on
That'll be his first love 'til his first love comes along
He'll get his heart broke
By the time he's in his teens
And heaven help him if he's anything like me

Oh, he'll be alright
If he's anything like...

Very good song, At first he is just joking around saying growing up to be like him would be payback/karma on his-self but then in the end he explains if his sun would grow up like him he would be fine :)
Very lovable song!
this is such a cute song ^_^ i love how brad always shows things off in a humorous way. i think the meaning is obvious; he's saying how if his son is anything like hi he'll do this and that, but in the end he'll be okay cause he's just like his dad. such a sweet song. LOOOOVE it!
