...if you are your own grandpa.

Many many years ago, I was two thousand three,
And I was married to a widow as pretty as can be.
This widow had a grown-up daughter who had scales of red.
My father fell in love with her and soon the two were wed.

This made my dad my son-in-law and changed my very life,
For my daughter was my mother, for she was my father's wife.
To complicate the matter, even though it made me sing,
I soon became the father of a baby dragonling.

My little baby thus became a brother-in-law to Dad,
And so became my uncle, though it made me very sad.
For if he was my uncle, then that also made him brother
To the widow's grown-up daughter, who of course was my step-mother.

Father's wife then had a son who kept him on the run,
And he became my grandchild for he was my daughter's son.
My wife is now my mother's mother and it makes me blue,
Because although she is my wife, she's my grandmother, too!

Oh, if my wife's my grandmother then I am her grandchild,
And every time I think of it it nearly drives me wild.
For now I have become the strangest case you ever saw --
As the husband of my grandmother, I am my own grandpa.

(Chorus)
I am my own grandpa.
I am my own grandpa.
It sounds funny I know, but it really is so --
I am my own grandpa.

To Life,
-Graht
