DADDY’S LITTLE BABY ANGEL CUPCAKE CANDY BUTTERFLY

I remember when my little girl would play under open skies
when a day could seem as endless as 
a summer’s worth of fireflies
now a princess shouldn’t think too hard we all know that’s true
so listen to your Dad as I explain how I see you:

You’re Daddy’s little baby angel cupcake candy butterfly
And though this is your wedding day,
a part of me just wants to die
’Cause I know it’s the the time that I’m supposed to set you free
but it kills me that the man holding your hand’s no longer me. Is that creepy?

You’re changing from “daughter” to “wife” 
while following god’s plan
‘cause a woman worth can be only defined by her man
I hope you take my love advice as a matter of course
and ignore the fact that your Mom and I got a divorce

Because you’re Daddy’s little baby angel cupcake candy butterfly
And though you say you want all this, 
a part of me keeps asking why
I know in time I’ll be ok and things will all be fine
but the ring around your finger is his and no longer mine. 
That’s why I’m cryin’

He’s a good man, that I’ll barely hate
You’re my baby, even though your twenty-eight
So I’m saying, before it gets too late
You’ll always have a home you can come back to- (no offense son!)

You’re Daddy’s little baby angel cupcake candy unicorn daffodil butterfly
And though I hate you’re leaving me, 
you know I’ll always be nearby
just like when I spied on you and that first boy that you kissed
and it’s weird as hell that I just couldn’t tell it was vaguely misogynist— Yet I still insist:

You’re Daddy’s little baby angel cupcake candy rainbow ice cream
fairy-tale star-ship motorboat picnic fireworks butterfly-
Can you guess what has two thumbs and is inappropriate- 
THIS GUY
and in the same way that a piece of dirt can make a lovely pearl 
it’s sad that your dear Dad gets his self-worth through his girl
what a world, oh what a world.

You’ll always be my little baby angel cupcake candy butterfly… ALWAYS.
