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.
 It's no more "Mama anything you say"
 From morning till night.
 I took a giant step!
 A wimpy kid no more,
 You never saw a turnaround like this before.
 It's just one small step for mankind.
 But for me,
 It was a forceful step, a most resourceful step,
 A bold and brassy step,
 A sassy, classy step,
 A self reliant step,
 A brave defiant step.
 I took a giant step
 And I'm free
