The song is about a daughter addressing her mother, questioning why her mother did not warn her or teach her about life's dangers like "boys" and the world. In the chorus, the daughter sings about experiences like getting hit by a bus and train, falling in love, sinking at sea, crashing her car, and going insane. Despite the dangers and pain, the daughter admits it "felt so good" and wants to experience it again. The song suggests the daughter's reckless behaviors could have been prevented if her mother had shared her wisdom and warnings.
