Nothing To Cry About Lyrics
You say you’re never coming out
Once you get inside your daddy’s house
Well, you got nothing to cry about
So how ‘bout you just shut your pretty mouth
C’mon
Well, your daddy lives up on the hill
Where he lights up all his pretty things
He don’t know I got the key, baby
I think I’ll go and have myself a peek
Now listen
What your daddy done for you
He’s gonna do for me too
You got no need for tears
You got no need to pout
You got nothing to cry about
The lights are off so take the key
And take a little walk with me
If you wanna have some fun
Baby, show me daddy’s gun
Well, what your daddy done for you
He’s gonna do for me too
And if you want some
You better get it now
You got nothing to cry about
What your daddy done for you
He’s gonna do for me too
So shut your pretty mouth
And put your foot down
You got nothing to cry about
What your daddy done for you
He’s gonna do for me too
I set you free now
Let’s burn the fucking town
You got nothing to cry about
Once you get inside your daddy’s house
Well, you got nothing to cry about
So how ‘bout you just shut your pretty mouth
C’mon
Where he lights up all his pretty things
He don’t know I got the key, baby
I think I’ll go and have myself a peek
Now listen
He’s gonna do for me too
You got no need for tears
You got no need to pout
You got nothing to cry about
And take a little walk with me
If you wanna have some fun
Baby, show me daddy’s gun
He’s gonna do for me too
And if you want some
You better get it now
You got nothing to cry about
He’s gonna do for me too
So shut your pretty mouth
And put your foot down
You got nothing to cry about
He’s gonna do for me too
I set you free now
Let’s burn the fucking town
You got nothing to cry about

I don't really get what this one is about, but I really really really like it.
Awesome song! I think its a sordid tale of a father molesting his daughter. He locks her up. This guy loves her and is going to set her free.
That's what I was thinking... favorite song on the album.

Hmm...
I think this song is about a guy who is dating a girl, and her father doesn't like him. So he breaks into the "daddy's" house to kill the father and convince the girl to go with him.
I think the line is
"Where he locks up all his pretty things",
This implies that the "Daddy" is protecting (locking up) his valuables, including his daughter.
A lot like Sweeney Todd, eh?
Except if that faggot who was in love with Joanna was someone cool like Todd Lewis
Daddy's house= God's house. The Devil is talking to Jesus.
