Daddy

Wait why are we out here again

because mom said that while she's away we have to spend quality time with dad ugh

I just wanna have some fun Jump in my jeep and enjoy the sun

I just wanna, I just wanna get up and go Cause my heart says yes But my Daddy says no!

I just wanna live my life Call my friends and stay up all night

I just wanna, I just wanna have a good time Cause my heart says yes, yes, yes

But my daddy says no!

Please daddy, please daddy, please? You KNOW that I really really want one of these

Plus all my friends got cars When they turned 16 Dad please, I want a white jeep

Wait, hair straight or curled? Hi very best daddy in the world

Oh by the way Do you mind if some friends spend the night? It’s only like 25 girls

Dad please let me go with my friends I promise to be back from the mall by 10

It’s just like me and my girls <Madison> and like FOUR guys!

Madison! Daddy they're just friends

EW!!! Daddy PLEASE come quick I just saw a bug on the ground THIS BIG!

Someone get a cup and a broom and a bag and a lighter in case We see it, I’ll… (scream!)

I just wanna have some fun Jump in my jeep and enjoy the sun

I just wanna, I just wanna get up and go Cause my heart says yes But my Daddy says no!

I just wanna live my life Call my friends and stay up all night

I just wanna, I just wanna have a good time Cause my heart says yes, yes, yes

But my daddy says no!

Yes Yes Yes But My Daddy Says No

Yes Yes Yes But My Daddy Says No

I promise that I’ll pay it all back Besides, I’ve already done all the math

See? If we buy right now... Look right here It’ll only take 28 years!

Sorry I’ve been on the other line Some other girls called so now it’s 35

I ordered like, forty pizzas. Hope that was right, um Daddy can you pay the pizza guy?

Daddy, real quick and I’m through I can still make the movie with my friends by 2

So I tried to call mom cause I know that you’re really really busy but she told me that I had to ask you

Ohhh dad, I feel sick I think we should head to the store really quick

My head feels hot And my throat needs something really cold Only ice cream will do the trick

I just wanna have some fun Jump in my jeep and enjoy the sun

I just wanna, I just wanna get up and go Cause my heart says yes But my Daddy says no!

I just wanna live my life Call my friends and stay up all night

I just wanna, I just wanna have a good time Cause my heart says yes, yes, yes

But my daddy says no! Yes Yes Yes

But my daddy says no! Yes Yes Yes

But my daddy says no

Dad, I'm ready to make a deal. We don't have to get the black rims

Dad, great news! I've got it down to 17 girls. Deal?

Dad, I'm going to be soooo late, I just need you to say yes. My friends are down the street.

Come on guys. Maybe we shouldn't ask him anymore... PLEASE!

I just wanna have some fun Jump in my jeep and enjoy the sun

I just wanna, I just wanna get up and go Cause my heart says yes But my Daddy says no!

I just wanna live my life Call my friends and stay up all night

I just wanna, I just wanna have a good time Cause my heart says yes, yes, yes

But my daddy says no!

I just wanna have some fun Jump in my jeep and enjoy the sun

I just wanna, I just wanna get up and go Cause my heart says yes But my Daddy says no!

I just wanna live my life Call my friends and stay up all night

I just wanna, I just wanna have a good time Cause my heart says yes, yes, yes

But my daddy says no

Ugh, I'm calling Mom!
