What Your Father Says
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Is it a bad time to tell you I love you
When I'm watching you walk away?
Bad time to tell you I need you
When he's made up his mind again
Don't be cruel to me
All I do is believe
That it's a bad time to tell you to trust me
When I'm getting my story straight
A bad time to kick up a fuss
When it's only ever me to blame
You're confused about me
(All the rumours getting through
'Cause he heard that I'm bad news, oh baby)
Forget what your father says
I'm throwing stones at your windowpane
'Cause a boy like me and a girl like you
Got no degrees and a lot to prove
Says that you're right for me
Forget what your father says
Is it the good times, sneak in the back door
When your dad's at work all day?
A good time to lean in and kiss you
When he's not up in your face
You're confused about me
All the rumours getting through
'Cause he heard that I'm bad news, oh baby
Forget what your father says
I'm throwing stones at your windowpane
'Cause a boy like me and a girl like you
Got no degrees and a lot to prove
Says that you're right for me
Forget what your father says
Told me he don't like my hair, he don't like my music
Told me that I better run otherwise he'll lose it
And if I want his daughter's love I better start praying
So all that I keep saying to her
Forget what your father says
I'm throwing stones at your windowpane
'Cause a boy like me and a girl like you
Got no degrees and a lot to prove
Says that you're right for me
Forget what your father says
I'm throwing stones at your windowpane
'Cause a boy like me and a girl like you
Got no degrees and a lot to prove
Says that you're wrong for me
Forget what your father says
Forget what your father says
Forget what your father says
