Today is supposed to be yours
Dear Dad,
Thanks for supplying the sperm
Taking me to the movies
The presents
And all that stuff

This is Fathers' Day
So, Dear Stepfather,
Thanks for taking care of me
Baseball games
Fun arguments
And all that stuff

I love both of these men
As much as they get on my nerves
But the people who've helped me
The most about 'men'
I never called the label 'Dad'
They were: Friend, Teacher, Lover

So, as much as Hallmark
Or whatever card company
Would like me to thank my Dad today
I'll take this time instead
To say thank you to all the guys
Who did so much more
