Daddy's In The Doldrums (Secret Machines)

Mother walks the streets With a baby in her hands While the child weighs on her mind Mom's looking for a man 'Cause her Daddy's in the Doldrums And Mama wants to dance Yeah, Daddy's in the Doldrums And he can barely stand So where were you? His eyes stood frozen, dark A breath of overcasting black He watched her walk away And now she ain't coming back 'Cause her Daddy's in the Doldrums And Mama wants to dance Yeah, Daddy's in the Doldrums And he can barely stand So where were you? With each step she took Another nail driven in building her wreck No, don't look back or Watch me reign down, 'cause it's an act Though my love just feels deceit The sickening beat gets carried away
