he told her she was grounded
she looked at him dumb-founded
but knew hed never get his way

he thinks shes tucked up in bed
shes waiting with the light off instead
all dressed up an ready to go
when he wakes up shell be gone

so lock up your daughter, just lock up your daughter,
just lock up your daughter tonight
