What Your Father Says

Is it a bad time to tell you I love you When I'm watching you walk away? A bad time to tell you I need you When he's made up his mind again Don't be cruel to me All I do is believe That it's a bad time to tell you to trust me When I'm getting my story straight A bad time to kick up a fuss When it's only ever me to blame You're confused about me All the rumours getting through 'Cause you heard that I'm bad news, oh baby Forget what your father says I'm throwing stones at your windowpane 'Cause a boy like me and a girl like you Got no degrees and a lot to prove Says that you're wrong for me Forget what your father says Is it a good time to sneak in the back door When your dad's at work all day? A good time to lean in and kiss you When he's not up in your face? You're confused about me All the rumours getting through 'Cause he heard that I'm bad news, oh baby Forget what your father says I'm throwing stones at your windowpane 'Cause a boy like me and a girl like you Got no degrees and a lot to prove Says that you're wrong for me Forget what your father says Told me he don't like my hair, he don't like my music Told me that I better run, otherwise he'll lose it And if I want his daughter's love, I better stop playing So all that I keep saying to her Forget what your father says I'm throwing stones at your windowpane 'Cause a boy like me and a girl like you Got no degrees and a lot to prove Says that you're wrong for me Forget what your father says I'm throwing stones at your windowpane 'Cause a boy like me and a girl like you Got no degrees and a lot to prove Says that you're wrong for me Forget what your father says Forget what your father says Forget what your father says
