G#
You're a precious stone, you're out on your own
You know everyone in the world, but you feel alone
Daddy won't let you weep, Daddy won't let you ache
Daddy gives you as much as you can take

Chorus:
G#
Aha, sha-la
Aha sha-la
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car

A little uptight, you're a baby's fist
Butterfly kisses up an' down your wrist
When you see Daddy comin', you're lickin' your lips
Nails bitten down to the quick

Chorus:
Aha, sha-la
Aha sha-la
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car

You've got a head full of traffic,
you're a siren's song
You cry for Mama, and Daddy's right along
He gives you the keys to a flamin' car
Daddy's with you wherever you are
Daddy's a comfort, Daddy's your best friend
Daddy'll hold your hand right up to the end

Chorus:
Aha, sha-la
Aha sha-la
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car

Thursday, Friday, Saturday's alright
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday

Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
Thursday, Friday, Saturday's alright
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
Thursday, Friday, Saturday's alright
