Lyrics

Daddy

[Verse 1]

My bones are tired, Daddy

I don't get enough sleep

I don't eat as good as I could, Daddy

What's that say about me?

[Verse 2]

You know, sometimes I sleep past noon, Daddy

I drink lots of black coffee and I smoke like a chimney

And yes, I left the refrigerator door half open, Daddy

What's that say about me?

[Verse 3]

You know, sometimes I wanna to rip out your throat, Daddy

For all those things you said that were mean

I'm gonna make you just as vulnerable as I was, Daddy

What's that say about me?

[Verse 4]

You know, sometimes I want to bash in your teeth, Daddy

I'm gonna use your tongue as a stamp

I'm gonna rip your heart out the way that you did mine, Daddy

Go ahead and psychoanalyze that

[Verse 5]

'Cause I'm your creation, I'm your love, Daddy

Grown up to be and do all those sick things you said that I would do

Well, last night I saw you sneak out your window with your white hood, Daddy

What's that say about you?

[Outro]

I'm sloppy, what's that say about you?

I'm messy, what's that say about you?

My bones are tired, Daddy
