Daddy's best girl in the world is not supposed to have a boyfriend    But she's never wanted at home    Other girls are allowed to wear their makeup    She sneaks out her lipstick powder and comb    She surrounds his name with hearts and flowers    Talks on the telephone for hours and hours    But with the bird in his hand    And two on a string    The words of love have an imitation ring    You little fool, you little fool    I suppose that your going to stay all night    You little fool    Don't look at me that way you know it isn't right    You little fool       They say no news is good news    The little girl wants information    Mother just gives her some pills to choose    And says go and use your imagination       Daddy's best girl in the world says just look what I have got    As she sits beside him on the high stool    With his arm around her neck snowball in one hand    And the other full of imitation jewels    She fingers a string of pearls    An imitation but he'll never know it    Imitation lashes flutter above    Looking for an imitation of love       You little fool    I suppose that your going to stay all night    You little fool    So don't look at me that way you know it isn't right    You little fool
