| [00:36.78] |
She had a bad dream in the back seat |
| [00:38.73] |
The same one as yesterday, the same one as last week |
| [00:41.41] |
|
| [00:42.04] |
Surrounded by her favorite favorites |
| [00:43.35] |
|
| [00:44.29] |
Elmo, Barbie, her purple baby blanket |
| [00:46.23] |
|
| [00:46.78] |
And that little matchbox, looks just like Dad's car |
| [00:48.79] |
|
| [00:49.79] |
Its fast on the leather, pretends its nascar |
| [00:51.41] |
|
| [00:52.17] |
It jumps over Elmo cause it can fly that far |
| [00:54.79] |
With Daddy in the front seat frontin like a rap star |
| [00:58.05] |
And girl, oh girl, Daddy's the greatest |
| [00:59.56] |
He knows the words to everything on the radio play list |
| [01:02.24] |
|
| [01:02.80] |
He fakes the accent, even makes all the faces |
| [01:05.06] |
And when he raises his voice it makes her feel like hes famous |
| [01:07.86] |
|
| [01:08.93] |
Yeah Papa got his lean on, a mean one |
| [01:11.05] |
Weavin down Lake Street tryin to get his scene on |
| [01:13.31] |
|
| [01:13.86] |
Stoppin the whip to say something out the window |
| [01:15.80] |
|
| [01:16.43] |
Bobbin his head to the beat on the radio |
| [01:18.37] |
|
| [01:19.49] |
Good Daddy wont smoke no weed until the bass cradles her back to sleep |
| [01:23.05] |
|
| [01:24.12] |
But he can steak his mack while she takes a nap |
| [01:26.93] |
To the sweet pretty sounds of the gangster rap |
| [01:28.68] |
|
| [01:29.49] |
The high hats are angles' voices |
| [01:31.68] |
They keep her distracted from the strangers' voices |
| [01:34.50] |
|
| [01:35.68] |
Escape is a paradox because the childhood is locked in that music box |
| [01:39.43] |
|
| [01:40.49] |
Daddys drive around, Mommys work night shift |
| [01:42.74] |
|
| [01:43.31] |
Sweet dreams, sleep little precious |
| [01:44.99] |
|
| [01:45.62] |
Lay down in that music box, Escape in the sound of that music box |
| [01:51.00] |
Daddys drive around, Mommys work night shift |
| [01:53.11] |
|
| [01:53.74] |
Sweet dreams, sleep little precious |
| [01:55.62] |
|
| [01:56.62] |
Lay down in that music box, Escape in the sound of that music box |
| [02:01.12] |
|
| [02:13.18] |
Yeah, Daddy knows people, hes important |
| [02:14.43] |
The guy with the suit and tie they see at the court |
| [02:17.43] |
And it seems like he ain't tryin to talk to police |
| [02:19.87] |
But at the car wash they treat him like the star that she sees |
| [02:22.56] |
|
| [02:23.56] |
They like Poppa's big wheels |
| [02:25.18] |
And the lollipop she gets makes her feel like a big deal |
| [02:27.80] |
|
| [02:28.55] |
Not allowed to have it yet, gotta sit still |
| [02:30.87] |
Like the toy that she knows is gonna come with the kids meal |
| [02:33.56] |
|
| [02:34.50] |
She loves drive-thru food |
| [02:36.06] |
Health conscious Dad, he buys her the juice |
| [02:38.74] |
A little sip of soda builds the pride |
| [02:40.56] |
|
| [02:41.37] |
Go ahead baby-girl don't spill those fries |
| [02:43.18] |
|
| [02:44.50] |
Nu-uh, Papa cant roll a messy office |
| [02:46.87] |
Compulsive in the way she lay them napkins all across the seat |
| [02:50.07] |
Never puts her feet up on the upholstery |
| [02:52.46] |
Just kicks em side to side to the beat on the radio |
| [02:54.76] |
|
| [02:55.77] |
She sings along like Dad does |
| [02:57.52] |
She knows all the words but she leaves out the bad ones |
| [03:00.20] |
Except "bitch" she always sings the word "bitch" |
| [03:02.51] |
Cause it makes her daddy laugh, its her magic trick |
| [03:05.40] |
And when Daddy picks Mommy up they fight |
| [03:08.21] |
They fight about money, they fight about life |
| [03:09.84] |
So she concentrates oh so hard on the music |
| [03:12.65] |
|
| [03:13.27] |
And loses herself inside of the bass and the movement |
| [03:16.47] |
Daddys drive around, Mommys work night shift |
| [03:19.15] |
Sweet dreams, sleep little precious |
| [03:21.52] |
|
| [03:22.02] |
Lay down in that music box, Escape in the sound of that music box |
| [03:26.34] |
|
| [03:27.40] |
Daddys drive around, Mommys work night shift |
| [03:29.40] |
|
| [03:30.40] |
Sweet dreams, sleep little precious |
| [03:32.09] |
|
| [03:32.78] |
Lay down in that music box, Escape in the sound of that music box |
| [03:37.05] |
|
| [03:38.99] |
Turn that Buick off |
