Lullaby (the Divorce Song) Lyrics - Stephen Lynch

Hush little girl 

Sweet baby don't cry 

Tonight 

Daddy is here and he'll sing you a soft lullaby 

Tonight 

Why can't it all be like it was before? 

How can I explain why mommy's not here anymore? 

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 mommy left us 

Mommy left us 

Hush little girl 

There is no reason to fret 

Tonight 

Don't mind the smoke 

Daddy just wants to forget 

Tonight 

Soon it will all be like it was before 

Any minute she will walk through that front door 

But daddy plays poker and drinks lots of beer 

Then he wants sex that involves mommy's rear 

Daddy has sores on his naughty parts oozing with puss 

I think that's why your mommy left us 

Please don't cry 

I swear I'll try 

To be here by your side 

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
