Don't Call Me Daughter
Alone... listless... breakfast table in an otherwise empty room
Young girl... violins... center of her own attention
The, 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
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




The shades go down
The shades go, go, go...

Overall Meaning

The song "Call Me" by Marsmobil is not the same song as "Don't Call Me Daughter" by Pearl Jam, which has been provided as the lyrics. However, interpreting the lyrics of "Don't Call Me Daughter," one can understand that the song is about a young girl or daughter who feels disconnected from her mother, who is trying to make her proud by reading aloud to her daughter. The daughter is alone, listless, and uninterested, while the mother is trying to connect with her. The shades go down, and there is something wrong with the painted room, perhaps reflecting the daughter's melancholic state of mind. The daughter resents being called "daughter" and is not fit to be the picture-perfect daughter her mother wants her to be. She feels held down by her mother's expectations and is determined to rise above. The shades go down, perhaps indicating that the daughter is closing herself off from her mother and the world.


In many ways, "Don't Call Me Daughter" reflects the emotional distance that can exist between a mother and her child, especially if the child feels misunderstood or pressured. The daughter, in this case, resents being held down and not being able to live up to her mother's expectations. The song raises questions about the nature of parental expectations, the pressure to conform, and the need for individuality and self-expression.
