Watching rainbows disintegrate
Little children playing fun games
I wonder with ribbons in my hair
How much longer will I have to be
Daddy's Little Girl
I am tired of pretending
To be innocent
I want to play with the big boys
To be indecent
I am tired of being daddy's little girl
I went to the mall today
Bought a little black dress
Tonight I will not be afraid
Tonight I will act like I am a terrible mess
You see now
As I dance with every man in the room
Daddy's little girl has grown up
And I promise I didn't grow to soon
I am tired of pretending
To be innocent
I want to play with the big boys
To be indecent
I am tired of being daddy's little girl

I do relate to this one also, as even now my Dad seems to try and make sure I don't do anything. Can't drink too much (I'm 18, legal age for Britain), don't go out after nine, oh who are you talking to/meeting up with? I don't really want you seeing them. God, I can't forever remain his 'little girl' he can think it, but that's it.
