This song basically sums up Koporo Aporo and his difficulty coping with the death of Natalie McBeef. The lyrics themselves are arranged in such a fashion as if Koporo were leaning on the words of his mother for advice, with very simple simile usage done with stereotypical southern wording. The Aesop of the song is that his broken heart will heal, but as an adult, the protagonist of the song (the son, or in this case, Koporo) needs to stop whimpering and "suck it up, son of mine."
It sounds cruel, but it is indicative of the way he was raised. He was always closer to his mom than his sister Jajara was, and I believe Cuideag will attest their mother wasn't the kindest or most subtle of caretakers.
Also, if anyone has ever met/seen Koporo, they know damn well IRL Koporo would be that guy in the music video. Minus the facial hair.

Quote:Wake up, son of mineMomma got something to tell youChanges comeLife will have its wayWith your pride, sonTake it like a man
Hang on, son of mineA storm is blowing up your horizon
Changes comeKeep your dignityTake the high roadTake it like a man
Listen up, son of mineMomma got something to tell youAll about growing painsLife will pound awayWhere the light don't shine, sonTake it like a man
Suck it up, son of mineThunder blowing up your horizon
Changes come (Changes come)Keep your dignity (Keep your dignity)Take the high road (Take the high road)Take it like a man (Take it like a man)
Momma said like the rain (This, too, shall pass)Like a kidney stone (This, too, shall pass)It's just a broken heart, sonThis pain will pass away
