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
