READY MADE written by Sheldon Manoo (1994)


What have I gotten myself into?
Do I have the strength to face what I must do?
I’ve taken the vows and I sealed the pact
Now it’s up to me to face my own facts
This love takes a lot of responsibilities
I’ve got to prove all my capabilities
It’s not an easy road I’ve chosen
But yet I’ve got to keep walking on
Cause my wife says she loves me
And she makes me happy
And these two children from her previous relationship
Together we four got a good partnership
            Though my family is ready made
            I got to protect them
            I got to love them
            Show I respect them
            Help solve problems oh
I don’t regret a single thing
Bout the woman who wears my ring
Her life had been a little hectic
And I’m not here to add to it
Those kids can be overbearing at times
But I’m not gonna lose my peace of mind
They may not accept me from the start
But I intend to work hard on that
There’ll be trials and tribulations
There’ll be rebellious confrontations
But we got to strike a compromise
In time we all would realize
We are a family!
(Music)
Some step fathers can’t get along with their step children
For the lady caught in the middle it’s so nerve wrecking
And that sets them apart
With a cold and bitter heart
But I won’t let myself fall into stereotypical factors
And I won’t wear a false mask like an actor
I would let them know where I stand
And things that are right and I’ll lend my hand
I’ll love them like my own
I’ll love her forever alone
We have our history
And we have our future
I’ll make sure my family
Work on everything together!
            Though my family is ready made
            I got to protect them
            I got to love them
            Show I respect them
            Help solve problems oh
