A Pastor's Daughter

You had to know it was a joke
I was just blowing smoke
When I said
It's a red flag to have a pastor for a dad

I should've heard you loud and clear
I should have taken the hint
When you asked if what I said
Was what I meant

It's easy to say the right things
But do the wrong ones (Yes)
Evil knows the truth
Even if it calls it no fun
So who are you gonna listen to
Me or the man with the loaded gun
Cause you're a pastor's daughter
And I'm what he's afraid of

Now you know me better than before
We are taking things slowly
So you say it's surprising a guy like me
Would find your dad alarming

I should've walked then and there
In fact I should have ran
Cause a pastor disappointing me
Is the rule not the exception

It's easy to say the right things
But do the wrong ones (Yes)
Evil knows the truth
Even if it calls it no fun
So who are you gonna listen to
Me or the man with the loaded gun
Cause you're a pastor's daughter
And I'm what he's afraid of

We have a threat
He asking questions I don't have answers to
Where he seeks clarity
I'll be real quick to call him a fool
Tell me is it mercy to say you love the mess
When you're defending a house of cards at best

It's easy to say the right things
But do the wrong ones (Yes)
Evil knows the truth
Even if it calls it no fun
So who are you gonna listen to
Me or the man with the loaded gun
Cause you're a pastor's daughter
And I'm what he's afraid of

You had to know it was a joke
I was just blowing smoke
