are you my daddy

are you

I don't wanna cut you up

drink you from a paper cup

I don't wanna spit you out

or kick you in the shin

I don't wanna knock you down

be your mother

be a clown

I don't wanna talk about

the shit you're really in

I don't wanna take a bow

now one's clapping anyhow

I don't wanna sneak around

and pray you'll understand

I don't wanna call your bluff

enough's enough

I don't wanna see you

chained up



I don't wanna ruffle you

cut the deck and shuffle you

don't wanna come to fisiticuffs

or stick you with a pin

I don't wanna argue

hurt your pride

or make you blue

your tongue is forked

and clearly

there are scales upon your skin

I don't wanna help ice crack

give you a surprise attack

I don't wanna cut you slack

and watch it go to hell

I don't wanna tell you lies

like presbyterians or spies

I don't wanna see you

chained up



don't you run away

leave me like a rainy day

I don't wanna make you stay

or stand up high above you

don't want you to see me cry

I'm just trying not to lie

I don't wanna see you

chained up
