Triky days ahead and do I miss my bed
Future love affairs creeping up my stairs 
And these boots wheren't made for kicking

Daddy's got the blues
Can't live with the news
His mind is on the loose
The drunkard's new excuse

Life's bananapeel is smiling at my heel
I'm having so much fun my joy is on the run
And this thing just won't stop ticking

Daddy's got the blues
Can't live with the news
His mind is on the loose
The drunkard's new excuse

Daddy's got the blues
Can't live with the news
His mind is on the loose
The drunkard's new excuse

Grant me my suspense my belief in nonsense
I'm 27 now I know eskimo

Daddy's got the blues
Can't live with the news
His mind is on the loose
The drunkard's new excuse

Daddy's got the blues
Can't live with the news
His mind is on the loose
The drunkard's new excuse
