You want to stay, I wanted you out 

Get out 

You're everything that I laugh about 

You're your own antithesis now 

I hope that you, you make yourself proud 

You're not useless when you're used 

When your exhausted heart and thighs are being bruised 



Wipe your tears away 

Tell me what would daddy say 

About that slattern little alley cat he raised 

Wipe those tears away (Wipe those tears away) 

Tell me what would daddy say (what would daddy say)

About that slattern little alley cat he raised 



You know someday, you'll figure it out 

This out 

You're the type I'm writing about 

You want to change but now it's too late 

Cause you're engaged to decisions you've made 

You're not useless when you're used 

When your exhausted heart and thighs are being bruised 



Wipe your tears away 

Tell me what would daddy say 

About that slattern little alley cat he raised 

Wipe those tears away (Wipe those tears away) 

Tell me what would daddy say (what would daddy say)

About that slattern little alley cat he raised 



Oh, now you can't quite blame yourself but you're guilty

You're guilty

You can't quite blame yourself but you're guilty

You're not useless when you're used 

When your exhausted heart and thighs are being bruised 



Wipe the tears away (Wipe the tears away) 

Tell me what would daddy say (what would daddy say)

About that slattern little alley cat he raised
