Lyrics

I’ve Come for Your Daughter

Hello, Mr Brown

How do you slumber?

I know your street

I've got your number

Your sweet young girl

She's got the yen

Your lack of sleep

Has just begun

I've come for your daughter

I've come for your daughter

I'm crazy about that child

We drive each other wild

Believe your fears

I'm no invention

I'm on your stairs

There's no prevention

I've come for your daughter

I've come for your daughter

I'm crazy about that child

We drive each other wild
