'Cause Daddy likes       porno and         ten-dollar        whores. 
       Daddy gets        wasted and        robs liquor       stores.
       Daddy likes       rubbing           against           little boys on the..
       bus.                        I think that's why your   Mommy left us.

But Daddy plays       poker and         drinks lots of    beer. 
    Then he wants     sex that          involves mommy's  rear. 
    Daddy has         sores on his      genitals          oozing with 
    pus.                        I think that's why your   Mommy left us.

      Right after       Daddy gets        home from the     bar. 
      Visits his        bookie        and steals      a new car. 
He'll drive to the      strip club    and if Daddy          plays his cards 
      right...                he'll bring home your new     Mommy tonight.
