I lie awake in bed at night,
And look up at the sky.
It makes me wonder what life's about,
It makes me wonder why.

Why the grass is that green,
And why the sky's so blue.
What's the meaning of life,
Is it really just fourty-two?

In fourty-two years you can learn a lot,
There's a lot of things to do.
In my eighteen years of life,
I have learnt a lot from you.

You're the best dad I could ask for,
And now you're fourty-three.
You're the only dad Ii could think of,
Who would put up with a daughter like me!
