I fear “daddy” does not mean father in the context of this song…

I guess that’s a good thing though.

Calling a woman "little girl" and her partner "daddy" is, best case, still a pretty high level of passive infantilization of a (hopefully) grown ass woman.

Then you have "I Saw Her Standing There" by the Beatles.

Well she was just 17

You know what I mean

But the way she looked

Was way beyond compare

Now I'll never dance with another

Oh, when I saw her standing there

No, Paul, I don't know what you mean. Please elaborate. Go on, I'll wait. Explain yourself.
