Psychopomps Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come my little sweetheart
And daddy will show you
What daddys really made for
Be my little girl
And suck your daddys dick
You know I don't like
When daddys girl cries
And I can asure you
That I won't be bad
If you don't wake mummy
'Cause she's had a hard day
Now stop crying
A little bit of blood
Just doesn't matter
To daddys little girl
Daddy want his girl
To feel that daddy cares
Now wipe off that tear
Wipe it off your cheek
Remember it's our secret
We want no one else to know
Now go back to sleep
Sweet dreams daddys girl
Daddys girl
The lyrics of Psychopomp's song "Daddy's Girl" depicts a disturbing and uncomfortable theme of a father sexually grooming his daughter. The father is portrayed as a predator manipulating and exploiting the innocence of his daughter. The chorus, "Come to daddy, Come my little sweetheart, And daddy will show you, What daddys really made for" is an invitation to sexual harassment, and the reference to "suck your daddy's dick" is a clear description of sexual abuse.
The lyrics continue with the father reassuring his daughter that he won't be "bad" as long as she doesn't wake up her mother, who had a hard day. This further portrays the father as controlling and manipulative, using a difficult situation to his advantage. He wants his daughter to feel that he cares for her, but this caring is tainted with sexual abuse, making the lyrics more disturbing.
The last verse tells the girl to wipe off her tears and keep it a secret, creating a sense of shame and guilt for the daughter. The lyrics of "Daddy's Girl" are a portrayal of the dark side of sexual abuse, manipulation, and incest. The song highlights the importance of speaking out against such heinous acts and seeking the right help.
