lyrics

Domineering Father
Words © Jelila. All Rights Reserved. 20.04.06 Singapore.

The teenage girl is singing it on her bed, miming in the mirror singing into her fan her friends join in, when Dad/Mum walk in and:

Am, Em, G, Am
Domineering father
Wouldn’t you rather
Put your gun away
And be my friend.
Wouldn’t you rather be on the mend?

Domineering father
Don’t get in a lather
Wouldn’t you prefer
To be on the mend?
Wouldn’t you rather be my friend, hey hey hey?

Domineering father,
Not sainthood but rather
Kindness at least
Is no palaver?
You’re a beast!

Goes up 3 frets or so:
Bam-bam-bam

Em G Am
Dad Dad Dad – You’ve
Em
been so BAD!
Em G Am
Dad Dad Dad think of all
Em G Am
the fun we could’ve had
If you hadn’t been so
Em Em Em
Nasty Nasty Nasty! …D
Em, G, Am

(They take him to the Judge in chains and he bursts into tears and says ‘sorry I was afraid… afraid… I was wrong”

I was mean to mother because… I was afraid I wasn’t important so I made her unimportant instead’

Child says ‘so that’s why you’ve been trying to prove you were right all this time?

YES YES YES!

Then the 5o’s chicks do the
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO thing from ‘leader of the pack’

(we see Hurt Girl and Domineering Father framed in a heart-shaped Wedding style doorway or frame)
‘they said he was ba-ad –
but I knew he was sa-ad
I’m sorry I fell for
My poor old dad

Ooh-ooh ooh ooh…

CHORUS:
Em G Am
Domineering Fa-ther hey hey hey!
I hate you! I really really hate you!

Am Em G Am
Domineering Fa-ther – hey hey hey!
…Chang Chang Chang
…Act your age
…Turn the page

Domineering father...
Wouldn't you rather...
Domineering Father... etc.

(spoken by Hurt Girl)
Get over it!
