Hey dad, can I ask you a question?
Yes, go ahead my darling, what's up?
Well

Dad, tell me why people
Say that other people are different?
Even though I believed in your poems
Where you said we were all the same
Dad, tell me why adults
Are killing the planet and even elephants?
The earth is going to die, that's what I was told
If it dies, will I die too?
Dad, tell me why you smoke?
Isn't that why grandpa is no longer here?
Tell me why if we can walk on the moon
We can't walk together down here?
Dad, tell me why money
Costs much more than a life?
Can I become president
Even though I'm a girl?

Tell me why? Oh, oh, oh
Dad tell me, dad tell me why? Oh, oh, oh
Dad tell me, dad tell me why? Oh, oh, oh
Dad tell me, dad tell me why? Oh, oh, oh

Dad, tell me why people
On the tablet are sometimes mean?
When the old man fell to the ground
Everyone filmed him but no one helped him up
Dad, tell me what love is?
Having babies, arguing every day?
Will you love mom for life?
Or will I have two homes like my friend Camille?
Dad, tell me why people
Sometimes love each other and sometimes they change?
Why was Melissa unhappy?
Now he says he's much happier
Dad, tell me that I'm the most beautiful
That you're there for me and that life is beautiful
Play with me one, two, three, sun
Dance with me one, two, three, I love you

But tell me why? Oh, oh, oh
Dad tell me, dad tell me why? Oh, oh, oh
Dad tell me, dad tell me why? Oh, oh, oh
Dad tell me, dad tell me why? Oh, oh, oh

Hey dad, can I still ask you questions please?
Ah, ask your mother
