SATURDAYS AT HALF PAST THREE
Once i had a lovely daddy
Smiled and took me on his knee
Used to laugh with me and mummy
Saturdays at half past threeHow i loved my lovely Daddy
Standing on the kitchen chair
Watching from the window for him
Put the kettle on he's thereThen one day my lovely daddy
Turned into a stranger man
Just when mummy had gone out shopping
Said he'd got a wizard plan
Said wed play but i must promise
Not to tell my mum or granWhat he did id try to tell?
But i dont think i can
Ever since he left me crying
On my bedroom floor
Now i can never be sure
Cos ive got a devil daddy
Please dont do it anymoreTeacher asked at school on Monday
What it was that made me cry
Stranger men are sent to prison
So i had to lieIf they take my devil daddy
They take my lovely daddy too
Daddy don't be angry now
I used to think so much of youGive me back my lovely daddy
Give me back my lovely daddyMake it like it used to be
When you laughed with me and mummy
Saturdays at half past three.
