I met Dinah at the Bible study when I was eight years old

She was just a story to them but to me she was more than they told

They said Be God fearing don't be messing with those non believing

So I've been in the church making sure no one's looking up my skirt

But I do not feel safe here I wanna feel alive

Do you thrive knowing that our God favors you over me dear

Dinah's old man said he thought all of her girlfriends were whores

In the end she got exactly what she'd been searching for

When that man took her out for a spin

She said no but he did not listen

So I've been in the church making sure no one's looking up my skirt

But I do not feel safe here I wanna feel alive

Do you thrive knowing that our God favors you over me dear

The same thing happened to me when I was only seventeen

Do you think I got what I deserved

Do you think God's just trying to be seen

By us non believers By us non God fearers

So I've been in the church making sure no one's looking up my skirt

But I do not feel safe here I wanna feel alive

Do you thrive knowing that our God favors you over me dear daddy

Two witness rule oh that's cool

Go ahead and play the fool while I do not feel safe here

I've been in the church but the church is in my skirt

I've been in the church but the church is in my skirt

I've been in the church but the church is in my skirt

And my skirt defines my worth in the church

Dear daddy
