"Daddy Knows Best" is a song written by Alex Ebert of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros fame. It appears in the SpongeBob SquarePants musical. In this song, Mr. Krabs tells his daughter, Pearl, about how important money is, but, as a counterpoint (both literally and musically), Pearl wants her father to listen to her and that she does not want to take over the Krusty Krab.

Lyrics

Mr. Krabs: Life is short and the end is near
It's important to identify what you hold dear
It's clear, Pearl, your daddy always knows best
Pearl: I am not in the mood for a teaching moment right now.
Mr. Krabs: Let me tell you what counts more than all the rest!
Money money matters most
Money money I can boast
Money money make a toast to
Money, money, money! Ha!
Pearl: You just don't understand me! I know we're not the same species but that doesn't mean that money's—
Mr. Krabs: Me money makes funny things funnier
Sunny things sunnier
Nothing's crummier than no bread
Pearl, your daddy always knows best
Pearl: Daddy, would you just listen to me—
Mr. Krabs: Pearl, let me show you how deeply we're blessed
Money money in this drawer
Money money 'round this door
Money money from the floor
Money, money, money! Ha!
Pearl: I should be my daddy's greatest prize
But instead he's got dollar signs in his eyes
Daddy, you just don't understand
All I care about is rockin' out with my favorite band
Oh the feeling that it creates
When I hear the Electric Skates
Mr. Krabs: Can you hear it, Pearl?
Ensemble: Money money money money etc...
Pearl: Daddy, can you hear me?
Can you hear me at all?


Pearl: Daddy!
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Oh, daddy
Daddy
Daddy
Daddy can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Daddy
Daddy
Daddy
Daddy
Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy
Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy
Daddy!
Mr. Krabs: Money money in the air
Money money everywhere
Money money to the chair
Money
Money
Money
Ha! Money money I'll stay true
Money money just us two
Money money I love you
Money money
Money money
Money money
Money money


Money money, money money, money money, money money
Money money, money money, money money, money money
Mr. Krabs: I'm sorry, Pearl, were you trying to say something?
(Pearl cries.)
Pearl: Daddy!
Mr. Krabs: Money!
