Why does he still go on like she's a baby
|
Saying that's no kind of language for a lady?
|
He knows she hates that word, that's why he said it.
|
He can be childish too and she won't forget it. '
|
|
Don't tell me I don't understand,'
|
He said, 'I know I don't understand.
|
I understood when you were ten,
|
But nothing's added up since then.'
|
|
He said, 'I'll give you a piece of my mind
|
And you're not too old to take it.'
|
Oh, just a piece of my mind
|
|
That's him and her mum on honeymoon.
|
She was born in January and that was in June.
|
But now her life and his, they just don't mix,
|
And he don't like her boyfriends or her politics. '
|
|
Don't tell me what you think of me,
|
I know what you think of me.
|
I understood when you were ten,
|
But nothing's added up since then.'
|
|
He said, 'I'll give you a piece of my mind
|
And you're not too old to take it.'
|
Just a piece of my mind
|
|
Still he remembers her head
|
On the pillow of her little bed.
|
And then all at once she's sixteen
|
And now she hates him. '
|
|
Don't tell me you don't understand,'
|
She said, 'What is there to understand?
|
I've grown up since I was a kid
|
And maybe, Dad, it's time that you did.'
|
|
She said, 'I'll give you a piece of my mind
|
And you're not too old to take it,
|
Oh, just a a piece of my mind
|
And not too old
|
'Cause I'm not your baby,
|
Not your little girl.'
|
Not your baby
|
Not your little girl
|
