Jay Ducharme - Plastic Daddy Lyrics

Well I got a dad
Who's ever so glad
To give me what I never had
He's ever so nice
Whatever the price
He never leaves me feeling sad
I give his number out to any operator
Who's glad to send me something that I'll pay for later
My life's improving greatly 'cause he's spoiling me so badly
Lord I love my plastic daddy
Well he's shiny and hard
And oh what a card
I take him to the shopping mall
Whatever I see
He'll buy it for me
He doesn't criticize at all
Mommy says he's dangerous
But I don't care
He's always in my wallet
When I need him there
Besides how could he harm another member of his family
Lord I love my plastic daddy
Being a kid was really tough
I couldn't find a toy that was cheap enough
Mommy always told me to put it back
Now my plastic daddy is where it's at
Well my daddy once said it
There's nothing like credit
To get you where you want to go
I guess that it's true
But I wish that I knew
Some things my daddy didn't know
The money that he borrows
Doesn't grow on trees
Real daddies never spend
As much as they please
With all the ways I've found to live beyond my means
I'm glad I have a plastic daddy
Lord I love my plastic
My debts are getting drastic
But lord I love my plastic daddy
