Status: For a contest... But im pretty sure its way to late for it :P
We're In An Awful Mess
Papa Don't Preach
Papa I know you're going to be upset
'Cause I was always your little girl
But you should know by now
I'm not a baby
You always taught me right from wrong
I need your help, daddy please be strong
I may be young at heart
But I know what I'm saying
The one you warned me all about
The one you said I could do without
We're in an awful mess, and I don't mean maybe – please
It takes all I have to not cry. I sing the words; I have never had to think about them, not for them to come out. I’ve known the song forever; everyone knows it, its Madonna!
But up until now, the words were empty. They never used to mean anything in particular to me, and I suppose I had never properly thought about them.
I had picked the song as it was something both Puck and I could perform easily, but I wonder if I also subconsciously picked it because of how perfect the words fit with our situation as it where.
Papa don't preach, I'm in trouble deep
Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep
But I made up my mind, I'm keeping my baby, oh
I'm gonna keep my baby, mmm...
He says that he's going to marry me
We can raise a little family
Maybe we'll be all right
It's a sacrifice
But my friends keep telling me to give it up
Saying I'm too young, I ought to live it up
What I need right now is some good advice, please
I smile. Its not the same, I think. Not at all. It’s similar, al most identical in some senses. But, at the same time, some parts are so different.
If I hadn’t been dating Finn, if I was slightly older, even 3 or so years would have done it, if there had been a possibility that my father might understand, give me some advice. But, I think ruefully, those few things are what make all the difference.
Daddy, daddy if you could only see
Just how good he's been treating me
You'd give us your blessing right now
'Cause we are in love, we are in love, so please
Papa don't preach, I'm in trouble deep
Papa don't preach, I've been losing sleep
The last part's right, I think.
And so is the first part, Puck’s treating you really good, and you know how you feel about him
Yes, but it is Finn’s, at least according to him, anyway. He’s also really good to you
And dumb enough to believe what ever you tell him
It sort of feels like I might be sick, but I smile, smile, smile. The three kids smile and laugh. As long as they’re enjoying this! I’m not.
Not the song choice, maybe, but singing with Puck and therefore having the kid’s listen to you?

Don't you stop loving me daddy
I know, I'm keeping my baby
As much as it pained me to sing that, it cleared some things up. Like, for instance, I have no idea what I’m doing. It also made me think that if I have Puck, things might work out okay.
Finn would never be able to do what Puck had just done.
That’s not fair
Yes, actually it is.
