lex's dad is dexter holland of the offspring, so with that in mind it's easy to paint the picture that they don't have the kind of father-daughter relationship either wishes they had. perhaps the father wishes he could spend more time with his daughter, or the daughter wishes she could meet the father's high expectations. perhaps the father doesn't have high expectations but people will always see her in his shadow, not as a separate person but as dexter's offspring (pun completely intended). when your dad is that famous, you in turn will be that famous for being the child of this man, as opposed to being famous for the talent one carries and that may be overshadowed by the fame the name carries with it.
of course, this song could also be entirely fictional and not apply to the reality of the situation.
