Yeah, I know sometimes
Things may not always make sense to you right now
But hey, what'd daddy always tell you?
Straighten up, little soldier
Stiffen up that upper lip
What you cryin' about?
You got me
Hailie, I know you miss your mom, and I know you miss your dad
When I'm gone, but I'm tryna give you the life that I never had
I can see you're sad even when you smile, even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes, deep inside, you wanna cry
'Cause you're scared, I ain't there? Daddy's with you in your prayers
No more crying, wipe them tears, daddy's here, no more nightmares
We gon' pull together through it, we gon' do it
Lainie, uncle's crazy, ain't he? Yeah, but he loves you, girl, and you better know it
We're all we got in this world, when it spins, when it swirls
When it whirls, when it twirls, two little beautiful girls
Lookin' puzzled, in a daze, I know it's confusing you
Daddy's always on the move, mama's always on the news
I try to keep you sheltered from it, but somehow, it seems
The harder that I try to do that, the more it backfires on me
All the things growin' up as daddy that he had to see
Daddy don't want you to see, but you see just as much as he did

Operation Mockingbird 

A covert campaign run by the CIA to influence the media.

Starting in the early days of the Cold War (late 40's), the CIA began a secret project called Operation Mockingbird, with the intent of buying influence behind the scenes at major media outlets and putting reporters on the CIA payroll, which has proven to be a stunning ongoing success. The CIA effort to recruit American news organizations and journalists to become spies and disseminators of propaganda, was headed up by Frank Wisner, Allen Dulles, Richard Helms, and Philip Graham (publisher of The Washington Post). Wisner had taken Graham under his wing to direct the program code-named Operation Mockingbird and both have presumably committed suicide.

Tequila Mockingbird 

Someone who, upon becoming intoxicated, attempts (poorly) to sing along to every song that plays around them.

I'm trying to actually listen to this song, but all these Tequila Mockingbirds are too damn loud.

mockingbird 

A people pleaser personality.
A person that takes on the personality of anyone they around during that period of time, having no real personality of their own.

Becca doesn't really like football, she's just a mockingbird.

mockingbird 

A bird who never sleeps, imitates other birds and animals, car horns, and whatnot, and doesn't shut up all night long, just because it is looking for a mate.

They can be recognized by their song: 'Chirrup chirrup chirrup tweet tweet tweet beep beep beep twirrup twirrup twirrup weet weet weet honk honk honk cheep cheep cheep bereep bereep bereep ...'

After being kept awake for 10 nights by the non-stop singing of the stupid mockingbird in the tree outside my bedroom, I lit up a stick of dynamite to blow up the tree and kill the annoying critter for good.
