Kid Creole & The Coconuts — Annie I'm Not Your Daddy lyrics

Lyrics

They say that all is fair in love and war
And child believe it When mama stayed in Saint Tropez
She had a fall or two
And I’m telling it to you straight
So you don’t have to hear it in another way
Oh Annie, I’m not your daddy
Oh Annie, I’m not your daddy
They say that out of sight is out of mind
And child believe it Your mama was in search of love
But all she got was used
And I’m telling it to your face
So you don’t have to hear it in another place
Break it to me gently now
Don’t forget I’m just a child
Oh Annie, I’m not your daddy
Mama’s baby’s, papa’s baby
Oh Annie, I’m not your daddy
Mama’s baby’s, papa’s baby
See if I was in your blood
Then you wouldn’t be so ugly
They say that bliss is made of ignorance
And child believe it That mama left and not confess
Perhaps I’d love you too
Yes I’m telling it to you straight
So you don’t have to hear it in another way
Break it to me gently now
Don’t forget I’m just a child
Oh Annie, I’m not your daddy
Mama’s baby’s papa’s baby
Oh Annie, I’m not your daddy
Mama’s baby’s, papa’s baby
See if I was in your blood
Then you wouldn’t be so ugly
Oh Annie, I’m not your daddy
Mama’s baby’s papa’s baby
Oh Annie, I’m not your daddy
Mama’s baby’s, papa’s baby
Mama’s baby’s, papa’s baby
Mama’s baby’s, papa’s baby
Mama’s baby’s, papa’s baby
