Don't Let Daddy Kiss Me Lyrics
Little girl sleeping in dreams of peace
Mommy been gone a long time
Daddy comes home and she still sleeps
Waiting for the world worst crime
And he comes up the stairs like he always does
And he never turns on the light
And she's wide awake, scared to death
She smells his lust and she smells his sweat
Curled in a ball she holds her breath
Praying to a God that she's never met
Don't let Daddy kiss me, don't let Daddy kiss me
Goodnight
Little girl lies by her Daddy's side
And she listens to him breathe
She knows there's something awful wrong
That she's far too young to see
And she knows she can't tell anyone
She's too full of guilt and shame
And if she tells she'll be all alone
They'd steal her Daddy and they'd steal her home
And it's not so bad when Daddy leaves her alone
Praying to her God with his heart of stone
Don't let Daddy kiss me, don't let Daddy kiss me
Goodnight
Why, tell me why,
The worst crime, in the world
And so Daddy lies by his daughter's side
And he sleeps deep and well
No nightmares come to him tonight
Though his daughter lives in hell
For his seed is sown where it should not be
But the beast in his mind don't care
And the only sound are tears that fell
Little girl turns her face to the wall
She knows that no-one hears her call
But it seems that God hears nothing at all
Don't let Daddy kiss me, don't let Daddy kiss me
Goodnight
Mommy been gone a long time
Daddy comes home and she still sleeps
Waiting for the world worst crime
And he comes up the stairs like he always does
And she's wide awake, scared to death
She smells his lust and she smells his sweat
Curled in a ball she holds her breath
Don't let Daddy kiss me, don't let Daddy kiss me
Goodnight
And she listens to him breathe
She knows there's something awful wrong
That she's far too young to see
She's too full of guilt and shame
And if she tells she'll be all alone
They'd steal her Daddy and they'd steal her home
Praying to her God with his heart of stone
Don't let Daddy kiss me, don't let Daddy kiss me
Goodnight
The worst crime, in the world
And he sleeps deep and well
No nightmares come to him tonight
Though his daughter lives in hell
But the beast in his mind don't care
And the only sound are tears that fell
Little girl turns her face to the wall
But it seems that God hears nothing at all
Don't let Daddy kiss me, don't let Daddy kiss me
Goodnight

Lemmy was the son of a vicar, and didn't meet his father until he was an adult. He ws not at all impressed, referring to him as a "Nasty little weasel". Inspiration for the son? Possibly.
@Dreamer Deceiver Its about rape.
@Dreamer Deceiver Its about rape.
Child abuse
This is obviously about a father raping his young daughter.
"Little girl sleeping in dreams of peace Mommy's been gone a long time Daddy comes home and she still sleeps Waiting for the world's worst crime"
While the mother is away, her father goes to commit the worlds "worst crime."
"She smells his lust and she smells his sweat."
"And she knows she can't tell anyone She's so full of guilt and shame And if she tells she'll be all alone They'd steal her Daddy and they'd steal her home"
If she speaks up about being raped by her father she will lose her home and her family will be broken, she feels ashamed about this. "And it's not so bad when Daddy leaves her alone" Shes coming up with excuses for not speaking up by saying its not so bad when hes not hurting her.
"And Daddy lies by his daughter's side And he sleeps both deep and well No nightmares come to him tonight Though his daughter lives in hell"
His daughter is suffering while he peacefully sleeps beside her. He doesnt suffer but she does.
"For his seed is sown where it should not be And the beast in his mind doesn't care And the only sounds are tears that fall Little girl turns her face to the wall"
his "seed" is inside his daughter where it shouldn't be. He doesn't care at all. She cries.
There's no other way to interpret this song...
