I Am My Own Grandpa

Many many years ago, when I was 23 years old
I married a widow as beautiful as can be
This widow had a grown-up daughter with red hair
My father fell in love and soon married her

Oh I am my own grandpa
I am my own grandpa
It's funny, I know
But it's the truth
Oh I am my own grandpa

This made my dad my son-in-law, and changed my life
My daughter became my mother, because she was my father's wife
To complicate the case even more, I had a joy
I soon became the father of a cheerful little boy

My baby became my father's brother-in-law
And became my uncle, which made me very sad
Because he was my uncle while also being his brother
The widow's daughter also became my stepmother

My father's wife then had a son
And became my grandson, because he was my daughter's son
My wife was now my mother's mother and that saddened me
Because even though she is my wife, she is also my grandmother

Now, if my wife is my grandmother, then I am her grandson
And I always think a lot about it, and I get disoriented
This is the strangest case I've ever seen
As the husband of my grandmother, I am my own grandpa
