Clawfinger What Gives Us The Right
don't do this, don't do that
don't you ever talk back
don't speak with food in your mouth
just keep quiet while the grown-ups are talking
I'm not being mean I'm just being fair
it's just because I really care
you know that I love you
but shut your mouth you just have to do what I say
I don't want you to lie
you're much too old to cry
you're just too yonug to know
but when you're older you'll understand
you are mine I own you
look at me I'm talking to you
don't use that tone to me
so shut your mouth you just have to do what I say
chorus:
when I grow up there will be a day
when everybody has to do what I say
when I grow up there will be a day
when everybody has to do it my way.
I've paid to raise you good
did everything I could so don't you dare to say
that I never cared about you anyway
I gave you food to eat
I kept you on your feet
I gave you all my good advice
not once did I hear you thank me for all that I've done
you don't know anything
about my suffering
I went through a lot of pain
just to get you where you are today
if I ever hit you
it's because I have to
you have done something wrong
and you deserve the punishment you have to pay
do what i say
chorus
don't ask me why not
be glad with what you've got
don't tell me you're alone
you should be glad that you have a home
just look me in the eyes
you have to realize
I make the rules, that's it
it's for your own good so you have to do what I say
chorus
