Chuck wasn't that old but his two loser sons sure made him look old. He worked hard. His sons would often break in to his apartment and steal whatever they could. They were and are still infamous town criminals.

lyrics

Chuck-
Some birds have heart.
Some birds have a hole.
Some birds know the one
but, not you.

Some birds have a home.
Some birds have a goal.
Some birds keep their souls
but, not you.
No, not you.

Some black love.
Some white clothes
can bring you home
and send him below.

Some birds have a heart.
Some birds have a gun.
This birds gonna love his son
but, not you.
No, not you.

Some black love.
Some white clothes,can bring you home
and send him below.
