Daddy Needs This

I know, oh I know

Daddy needs this

swallow your voice

and put that little knife away

And I know, oh I know

What are you dreaming of

A simple night

with lollipops and teddy-bears

You know, you know

Daddy needs this

Daddy needs this

to feel alive again

’cause tonight

He’s gonna make a little slide

’cause tonight

he’s gonna pick a lonesome fight

tonight

He’s gonna put out all the lights

Tonight , daddy needs his right

I know, oh I know

He’s been counting

spider webs and broken wheels

of passing trains

I know, oh I know

how to start this

but my senses blur

when it gets to the end

You know, oh you know

Daddy needs this

Daddy needs this

to fall asleep again

’cause tonight

he’s gonna make a little slide

’cause tonight

he’s gonna pick a lonesome fight

tonight

He’s gonna put out all the lights

Tonight, daddy needs his right
