DAUGHTER/AMERICAN PIE (Live From Bridge Benefit San Francisco, CA.  Oct.1994)

Alone...listless...breakfast table in an otherwise empty room
Young girl...violins...center of her own attention
Mother reads aloud, child, tries to understand it
Tries to make her proud

The shades go down, it's in her head
Painted room...can't deny there's something wrong...

Don't call me daughter, not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter, not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me...

She holds the hand that holds her down
She will...rise above...ooh...oh!

Don't call me daughter, not fit to    
The picture kept will remind me       
Don't call me daughter, not fit to be 
The picture kept will remind me

Don't call me daughter, not fit to    
The picture kept will remind me       
Don't call me daughter, not fit to be 
The picture kept will remind me          
Don't call me...

The shades go down  (2x)
The shades go, go yeah, ah
Go...go yeah...go yeah...ah oh...

Bye, bye...bye, bye...bye, bye
Bye, bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levy, but the levy was dry
And good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Singin' this'll be the day that I die...
This'll be the day that I die...


DAUGHTER/ANOTHER BRICK IN THE WALL (Taken From "Animal" B-side)

Alone...listless...breakfast table in an otherwise empty room
Young girl...violins...center of her own attention
Mother reads aloud, child, tries to understand it
Tries to make her proud

The shades go down, it's in her head
Painted room...can't deny there's something wrong...

Don't call me daughter, not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter, not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me...

She holds the hand that holds her down
She will...rise above...ooh...oh!

Don't call me daughter, not fit to    
The picture kept will remind me       
Don't call me daughter, not fit to be 
The picture kept will remind me

Don't call me daughter, not fit to    
The picture kept will remind me       
Don't call me daughter, not fit to be 
The picture kept will remind me          
Don't call me...

The shades go down  (2x)
The shades go, go yeah, ah
Go...go...go yeah...ah oh...

We don't need no education...
We don't need no thought patrol...
No dark sarcasms in the classroom...
Teachers leave those kids alone...


DAUGHTER/STUFF AND NONSENSE (Live From Melbourne Park, Australia.  17 March 95)

Alone...listless...breakfast table in an otherwise empty room
Young girl...violins...center of her own attention
Mother reads aloud, child, tries to understand it
Tries to make her proud

The shades go down, it's in her head
Painted room...can't deny there's something wrong...

Don't call me daughter, not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me daughter, not fit to
The picture kept will remind me
Don't call me...

She holds the hand that holds her down
She will...rise above...ooh...oh!

Don't call me daughter, not fit to    
The picture kept will remind me       
Don't call me daughter, not fit to be 
The picture kept will remind me

Don't call me daughter, not fit to    
The picture kept will remind me       
Don't call me daughter, not fit to be 
The picture kept will remind me          
Don't call me...

The shades go down  (4x)

And you know that I love you (3x)
Here and now, not forever...
I can give you the present...
I don't know about the future (2x)
Oh future...future...

Oh that's all stuff and nonsense
Oh stuff and nonsense...nonsense, nonsense...
Nonsense, nonsense...nonsense, nonsense
Nonsense (6x)
Stuff and nonsense
Nonsense (3x)
Fuckin' nonsense...nonsense, nonsense....
