I took a giant step!
I’m mighty proud of me.
Today, I am the man
I had to be.
Those apron strings at last are cut.
It’s like I grew some wings
And flew out of my Oedipal rut.
I leaped a giant leap!
I made the winning play.
It ain’t July, but hey,
It’s Independence Day!
No more «Sonny Boy»,
It’s «Mister Albert P.»
I took a giant step,
A self reliant step,
A brave defiant step and I’m free!
I climbed a giant peak,
A daring thing to do.
I’m way up high, oh Rosie,
What a view!
I see the future and it’s bright.
