Parental Concern
Her father was a tailor Somewhere in Canada He wants the best For his darling girl
But she's suffocating under the sheets Of over-protection Flimsily disguised As parental concern
It's hard being an only child She looked pained And stared at the floor Waiting for me to respond
I love them, I love And I hate them, too Poor child When do you think they'll let go of you?
'Write every day And call once a week We'll even fly you back once a month' They demanded
She just drifted away When she hung up the phone Cried again when she read The letter from home
Why can't it ever be smooth? She's naïve Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com To create an identity You've got to kill
Destroy your past At least for a while Find out who you are Break away from the child Break away from the child
'Write every day And call once a week We'll even fly you back once a month' They demanded
She just drifted away When she hung up the phone Cried again when she read The letter from home
It's already begun, daddy, She's beyond your control You must see her as a friend Or you'll never see her again
Cause she's suffocating And she's got to escape From the prison of your guidance To make her own Make her own mistakes
