The ‘You Are Such a Good Dad’ Song Is Annoyingly Accurate

The “You Are Such a Good Dad” song that’s making the internet rounds will infuriate moms—but only because it’s so true

Most parents in a heterosexual relationship have been there: Moms do so much work to take care of the household and kids, only to see their male partners get heaped with praise for doing, like, one thing related to childcare. One mom even wrote a song about it—and now the “You Are Such a Good Dad” song is going viral on TikTok because it’s just that relatable.

“I did the cooking and the cleaning and the groceries and the laundry, fed the cat and the dog and someone stole my coffee, got a gift for your mother that she probably won’t like, paid a bill, wiped a butt, broke up a couple fights,” the song begins, over a video of a mom doing, well, all of that.

It continues, “Then I just about lost my mind ’cause we both took the kids to the park, and someone said to you, ‘You are such a good dad.'”

OOF. We feel that in our bones.

The second verse is just as familiar: “I woke at 5 a.m. to screaming in the hallway, there was barf in the bed so another load of laundry, a kid was crying so we talked about our feelings, you were sleeping, that’s cool, but then you got up and your mom came over and she said, ‘You are such a good dad.'”

In the video, Dad dances while he gets praised, and Mom does “bath time, storytime, pee time, snack time, bedtime.” And then she somehow finds time to write this song because listen, she’s gotta get this frustration out somehow.

Don’t mind us—we’ll just be humming this song while we handle a few dozen things…
