Jailbait

They're loving her  
Like she's Lo-lee-ta  
More of sin of skin  
Than soul  
 
Age of sweetness  
But no, you won't witness  
Her singing, I'm just sixteen  
If you now what I mean  
Do you mind if I take off my dress?
 
 
Her next birthday  
Would only make her  
An almost woman  
And you want to have your way  
 
Good luck, daddy  
Hope you won't end up  
In jail  
Sorry, daddy  
Such an epic fail  
 
Not her fault that  
She looks like she's from Disney  
With the airs of being 20  
The wisdom of age 30  
Or so they say  
 
And she knows,  
Trust me, she does  
Eyes scanning  
Words...words playing  
 
Say that she's a beauty  
Or that she's smart  
Wiser than her years  
But daddy, believe me  
You'll regret it  
If for one more minute  
You call me jailbait  
 
It's not a compliment  
For fuck's sake.
