Dont Eat the Purple Acid I Repeat Do Not Eat the Purple Acid
For Glory, who is no more….NO MORE DADDY’S HANDS
Daddy has his demands
Especially at night
And oh the size of his great big hands
Yet Daddy was deemed delight
But it hurts me when the darkness rules
And onto my bed climbs pain and humiliation
It did no good to claim him king of fools
Because he had a need to fuel his fascination
No daddy I’d beg with blood in my voice
And a plea that would go unheard
As for a little girl she wasn’t offered a choice
And mommy wouldn’t have believed one solitary word
There were no words to ease my pain
While I imagined visiting foreign lands
I’d close my eyes as part of my soul was slain
“Oh no,” I’d silently plead, “no more daddy’s hands”
