Artist/Band: The Monkees
Lyrics for Song: Mommy And Daddy
Lyrics for Album: Music Box [2008]



Mommy and Daddy



Ask your mommy and daddy, "What happened to the Indian?

How come they're all living in places

With too much snow or too much sand?"

Tell your mommy, "I got a funny feeling deep inside of me"

Ask your daddy, "Is it really as bad as people make it seem?"



Wa ta tick it ta too too..



Ask your mommy why everybody swallows all those little pills

Ask your daddy why that soldier doesn't care who he kills

After they've put you to sleep and tucked you safely down in your bed

Whisper, "Mommy and Daddy would you rather that

I learned it from my friends, instead?

Do you think I'm to young to know, to see, to feel, or hear

My questions need an answer or a vaccuum will appear"

Don't be surprised if they turn and walk away

And tell your mommy and daddy that you love them anyway

That you love them anyway...

Give them a kiss

Love will set you free

Kings of EMI


Mommy And Daddy

Released on The Monkees' 2008 compilation Music Box, "Mommy And Daddy" stands as a quintessential example of the group's signature pop-rock sound. The track features the band's characteristic interplay between Mike Nesmith's melodic guitar work and Micky Dolenz's distinctive vocals, delivering a cheerful yet slightly melancholic tone that defined their early career. As part of the Original Album Series reissues, the song reflects the band's commitment to preserving their classic catalog while presenting it with modern clarity. Its enduring appeal lies in its simple, hook-driven structure and the nostalgic atmosphere it evokes for fans of 1960s television musicals. The recording remains a staple of The Monkees' discography, showcasing their ability to blend theatrical flair with accessible pop melodies that have resonated with audiences for decades.
