When he was just a boy of five
His dad sat him down and said, son,
The light that I see in your eyes
Says you'll do what's never been done."

Well the boy, he grew the way they do
Underneath the moon and sun
And a voice beyond his paper route
Said go do what's never been done And he tried so hard
To be the best he could be
But in his father's eyes
Was always disappointed Though once he had so many dreams
They were all wrapped up in one This scruffy boy in grubby jeans Who would do what's never been done

In school he moved on well enough
To the rat race he did run
To prove that he had the stuff
For to do what's never been done And he worked so hard
To be the model son
Till he came to realize
That it just couldn't be done Till he met a girl with golden hair
And a heart as big as the sun
Said if you will take me as I am
Then you'll do what's never been done
If you will take me as I am
Then you'll do what's never been done
