| [00:31.68] |
She had a bad dream in the back seat |
| [00:34.23] |
The same one as yesterday, the same one as last week |
| [00:36.92] |
Surrounded by her favorite favorites |
| [00:39.47] |
Elmo, Barbie, her purple baby blanket |
| [00:41.91] |
And that little matchbox, looks just like Dad's car |
| [00:44.66] |
Its fast on the leather, pretends its nascar |
| [00:47.16] |
It jumps over Elmo cause it can fly that far |
| [00:49.90] |
With Daddy in the front seat frontin like a rap star |
| [00:52.65] |
And girl, oh girl, Daddy's the greatest |
| [00:54.74] |
He knows the words to everything on the radio play list |
| [00:57.79] |
He fakes the accent, even makes all the faces |
| [01:00.18] |
And when he raises his voice it makes her feel like hes famous |
| [01:03.38] |
Yeah Papa got his lean on, a mean one |
| [01:06.03] |
Weavin down Lake Street tryin to get his scene on |
| [01:08.41] |
Stoppin the whip to say something out the window |
| [01:11.26] |
Bobbin his head to the beat on the radio |
| [01:13.81] |
Good Daddy wont smoke no **** until the bass cradles her back to sleep |
| [01:18.40] |
But he can steak his mack while she takes a nap |
| [01:21.44] |
To the sweet pretty sounds of the gangster rap |
| [01:24.39] |
The high hats are angles' voices |
| [01:26.83] |
They keep her distracted from the strangers' voices |
| [01:30.17] |
Escape is a paradox because the childhood is locked in that music box |
| [01:35.16] |
Daddys drive around, Mommys work night *****ft |
| [01:37.66] |
Sweet dreams, sleep little precious |
| [01:40.40] |
Lay down in that music box, Escape in the sound of that music box |
| [01:45.04] |
Daddys drive around, Mommys work night *****ft |
| [01:48.29] |
Sweet dreams, sleep little precious |
| [01:51.03] |
Lay down in that music box, Escape in the sound of that music box |
| [01:55.87] |
|
| [02:06.66] |
Yeah, Daddy knows people, hes important |
| [02:09.15] |
The guy with the suit and tie they see at the court |
| [02:11.45] |
And it seems like he ain't tryin to talk to police |
| [02:14.03] |
But at the car wash they treat him like the star that she sees |
| [02:17.37] |
They like Poppa's big wheels |
| [02:19.07] |
And the lollipop she gets makes her feel like a big deal |
| [02:22.22] |
Not allowed to have it yet, gotta sit still |
| [02:24.41] |
Like the toy that she knows is gonna come with the kids meal |
| [02:28.15] |
She loves drive-thru food |
| [02:30.10] |
Health conscious Dad, he buys her the juice |
| [02:32.71] |
A little sip of soda builds the pride |
| [02:35.16] |
Go ahead baby-girl don't spill those fries |
| [02:38.05] |
Nu-uh, Papa cant roll a messy office |
| [02:40.59] |
Compulsive in the way she lay them napkins all across the seat |
| [02:43.24] |
Never puts her feet up on the upholstery |
| [02:45.69] |
Just kicks em side to side to the beat on the radio |
| [02:48.99] |
She sings along like Dad does |
| [02:51.23] |
She knows all the words but she leaves out the bad ones |
| [02:53.78] |
Except "*****" she always sings the word "*****" |
| [02:56.07] |
Cause it makes her daddy laugh, its her magic trick |
| [02:59.02] |
And when Daddy picks Mommy up they fight |
| [03:01.57] |
They fight about money, they fight about life |
| [03:03.91] |
So she concentrates oh so hard on the music |
| [03:06.75] |
And loses herself inside of the bass and the movement |
| [03:09.54] |
Daddys drive around, Mommys work night *****ft |
| [03:12.43] |
Sweet dreams, sleep little precious |
| [03:14.93] |
Lay down in that music box, Escape in the sound of that music box |
| [03:19.70] |
Daddys drive around, Mommys work night *****ft |
| [03:22.75] |
Sweet dreams, sleep little precious |
| [03:25.53] |
Lay down in that music box, Escape in the sound of that music box |
| [03:31.43] |
Turn that Buick off |
