Prince - Daddy Pop Lyrics

Oh daddy
Ooh, sock it to me

See my brother talking plenty head
Steady wishin' he could sleep in your bed
Steady wishin' he was in your car
Just a steady wishin' that he was who you are

Pop daddy, daddy pop
Brother steady talking while the girlies steady hop
Pop daddy, daddy pop
Punchin' in the rock and roll clock

See all the people wonder why
You set your goals high, high as the sky
See the people runnin' from the truth
Livin' in the past when they need to be livin' the new

Pop daddy, daddy pop
Brother steady talking while the girlies steady hop
Pop daddy, daddy pop
Punchin' in the rock and roll clock

Pop, daddy pop
Pop, punchin' in the rock and roll clock
Talk, guitar, talk

Daddy pop is the writer
And love is the book
You better look it over
Before you overlook

One, oh daddy, two, oh yeah
Three, ooh, sock it to me
Four, oh, you're the best

See all my critics wastin' time
Worryin' about the daddy while he beat you blind
Get your life together, stop your cryin'
Whenever you say that you can't, that's when you need to be tryin'

Pop daddy, daddy pop
Brother steady talking while the girlies steady hop
Pop daddy, daddy pop
Punchin' in the rock and roll clock

What kind of fool is this that thinks daddy will miss?
What kind of boy would this, a list, as long as history itself
I got grooves and grooves up on the shelf
Deep Purple concord jams, this party I will slam

I don't think you understand
Whatever you can't do, daddy can
The one and only daddy pop
One and only, daddy pop

Pop daddy, daddy pop
Brother steady talking while the girlies steady hop
Pop daddy, daddy pop
Punchin' in the rock and roll clock

Poppa daddy's comin'
Ring, di-di-ding, somebody's calling
The Jester's on the phone
Oh yeah, Rosie, tell him I ain't home
Just one in a long line that wanna see me

Daddy pop
Oh daddy, oh yeah
Oh daddy, oh yeah

Daddy pop, daddy pop
Daddy pop, daddy pop

Daddy pop lead the band
As I step to the mic and lend a hand
To the funky groove, let's make the whole house move
Yo band, let me hear you say, "Ooh"

That's right, we're gonna turn this mother out tonight
We ain't leavin' till they gonna have to turn off the lights
And if they do, then what we gonna do?
Trash it up 'cause we ain't through

Yeah, hit it, it's time to get with it, huh
I ain't no angel, so to hell with playin' innocent
Those who came to party know just what I'm talking about
So come on y'all

Wave your hands in the air, everybody
Wave your hands in the air
For the funkiest band on land
And don't forget the P A R T Y M A N

Peace, yeah, peace
And like I said, right about now, NPG is like, huh
