Elvis Costello

Daddy Can I Turn This?

There is a button and there's a switch

There is a needle and there's a dial

There is a lever I want to lift

And still you treat me like I'm a child

Daddy can I turn this?

Daddy can I turn this?

Will it be very dangerous?

Or will it taste nice?

You wash your hands with perfume and spice

I'll tell you when I want your advice

Daddy can I turn this?

Daddy can I turn this?

Is anybody acting your age?

You got a girl you keep in a cage

You give her present after a while

A birthday cake containing a file

Daddy can I turn this?

Daddy can I turn this?

The flashing lights go running 'round and 'round

It spits out money

It tastes like honey

So drink it down

It leaves the slightest chemical taste

It could be most unfortunate

Earrings that jangle before they're seen

She slaps your face like a tambourine

Daddy can I turn this?

Daddy can I turn this?

Daddy can I turn this?

Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy...
