Story Behind The Song
"Best Dad" is about a toxic-yet-advantageous relationship with an older man and Daddy Issues. While Best Dad isn't a healthy partner, he provides tangible help with what's needed, and in the moment, this is enough. Best Dad allows Mickey Sunshine to burn another city to the ground, pack up and hit the road to Madison to write some songs.

Lyrics
Walked in your door
threw me against the wall
called me a whore
this is my kink after all
You're 40 years old
That's why I'm into this
Pass the blindfold
I'll be your little bitch
Hope you're not looking for a wife
Can think about me for life
While you save another dog from the pound
Gonna burn another city to the ground
Remember when I said I'm not your honey?
Give me all your money
From the motherfucking sock drawer
After you untie me from this headboard
Tell your daughter you're the Best Dad
I ever fucking had
Your hand drips in blood
While you're between my feet
Put soap in your hair
A moment that's bitter-sweet
I think you are perfect
For what I need right now
Just need someone to hold me
Before I leave town
Sorry, not hear to be your wife
Can't stay for this crisis, mid-life
While you save another dog from the pound
Gonna burn another city to the ground
Remember when I said I'm not your honey?
Give me all your money
From the motherfucking sock drawer
After you untie me from this headboard
And tell your daughter you're the Best Dad
I ever fucking had
Packed up all my boxes
The night before I left
Drove away grateful
I found you on the internet
And tell your daughter you're the Best Dad
I ever fucking had
