| <ab>It's very, very dear
It's very, very sweet
Thank you, really
For coming into my life
If we can be honest with each other
I want to always be with you, but
No matter where you are
I will always be your Dada
Though I'm not a hero
Or even a superstar
I will always be your Dada</ab>

| <ab>You're a small, noisy, whimpering thing
What a strange and wonderful creature
You're clumsy, bewildering, and worrisome
Quite a strange and wonderful feeling
What does it mean to be "a parent and a child"? What does it mean to "raise a child"?
There are so many things that I don't understand
But the only thing I know is
I've come to live for you
I am very, very happy, I feel very, very warm inside
Thank you, really, for coming into my life
If we can be honest with each other, I want to always be with you, but
No matter where you are
I will always be your Dada
Though I'm not a hero or even a superstar
I will always be your Dada
You're a small, noisy, whimpering thing
What a strange and wonderful creature
You're clumsy, bewildering, and worrisome
What a strange and wonderful creature</ab>

You drew me a funny picture
It's a strange and wonderful treasure
What could you be thinking?
You strange and wonderful being
The way you walk on those tiny helpless legs
Now, you've grown to become a fine boy, leaping off to who knows where
It's very, very dear, it's very, very sweet
Thank you, really, for coming into my life
If we can be honest with each other, I want to always be with you, but
No matter where you are
I will always be your Dada
