Daddy untwisted lyrics

Artist  : Over the rhine 
Song : Daddy untwisted
 
are you my daddy
are you
I don't wanna cut you up
drink you from a paper cup
I don't wanna spit you out
or kick you in the shin
I don't wanna knock you down
be your mother
be a clown
I don't wanna talk about
the shit you're really in
I don't wanna take a bow
now one's clapping anyhow
I don't wanna sneak around
and pray you'll understand
I don't wanna call your bluff
enough's enough
I don't wanna see you
chained up

I don't wanna ruffle you
cut the deck and shuffle you
don't wanna come to fisiticuffs
or stick you with a pin
I don't wanna argue
hurt your pride
or make you blue
your tongue is forked
and clearly
there are scales upon your skin
I don't wanna help ice crack
give you a surprise attack
I don't wanna cut you slack
and watch it go to hell
I don't wanna tell you lies
like presbyterians or spies
I don't wanna see you
chained up

don't you run away
leave me like a rainy day
I don't wanna make you stay
or stand up high above you
don't want you to see me cry
I'm just trying not to lie
I don't wanna see you
chained up
