Daddy Dearest

Sometimes I sit and reflect on
Things my daddy said
Things I should never forget
Never get out of my head
I'm a fuck
And I suck
I'm useless, worthless, I never shut up
I am weak
I shouldn't speak
Got nothing of value to say anyway
These are just things my daddy told me
These are just things my daddy said
That I'll never, never, never get out of my head
I'm a whore
And I'm sure
To end up with nothing in the end
I'm scattered
As if it mattered
That I can't keep my head on straight
That's just great
These are just things my daddy told me
These are just things my daddy said
That I'll never, never, never get out of my head
Now I try to escape
The voices that I hear
Telling me to do damage
I know I can make something of myself
If I can just manage
To get a grip, get a grip, get a grip, get a grip, get a grip
I'm a snake
I suffocate
Can't even make a dime
There's only one thing
I'm good for
Hey, are you looking for a good time?
These are just things my daddy told me
These are just things my daddy said
That I'll never, never, never get out of my head
I'm a waste
And just in case
I ever start to forget
You so graciously remind me
That I'm a great big mistake .....
And I always have to have the last word
