[Verse 1] Daddy was a strict man He ruled the house with an iron hand Oh, oh, oh, he terrorized the heartland With every lie that left his lips And every strike with his fist He made sure we weren't believed When the cops came round to hunt him down [Prechorus] Better run and hide If you wanna stay alive [Chorus] Oh, Daddy's home Oh, you're not alone He says he loves you With every kiss of his fist It's hard to resist Hating when Daddy's home Oh, Hating when Daddy's home [Verse 2] He slipped away Kept the cops at bay And got better at hiding his old ways He decided one day He wanted to watch us decay So with a flick of his wrist A deadly look in his eye And a little white lie He tried to take us out Without a single shout [Prechorus] Better run and hide If you wanna stay alive [Chorus] Oh, Daddy's home Oh, you're not alone He says he loves you With every kiss of his fist It's hard to resist Hating when Daddy's home Oh, Hating when Daddy's home [Verse 3] One day it was too late He finally met his fate Around sundown When the cops came round to drag him down He cried He lied He tried to say his goodbyes But the deed was done He had his fun and now he's stuck in jail without bail [Bridge] Oh, oh, oh, He tried to bring us down He tried to turn the town But when the truth came out They burned him down [Prechorus] Better run and hide If you wanna stay alive [Chorus] Oh, Daddy's home Oh, you're not alone He says he loves you With every kiss of his fist It's hard to resist Hating when Daddy's home Oh, Hating when Daddy's home
