Lyric discussion by rabbitbunny 

Again, there are many interpretations about Papa Don't Preach mainly because for Madonna, her father tortured and abused her when she was a teenager! Madge Nonnie is still to this day distraught over her mother's death! That's a solemn and sad fact! Madonna Cries in Her Life because she can't get over the heartache and abuse he caused her! In #1 hit Papa Don't Preach, there is a harrowing sadness, anger and rage in Madonna's sad Evita Detroit voice! A Victim of a Kind of Rage in more ways than one! Madonna is enraged in Papa Don't Preach! This song has sadness and meaning! Compared to what blogger Serenity said, Papa Don't Preach is neither stupid nor shallow! It's in fact an angry and sad broadside protest song sung by an artist and a woman who for once does not have any answers, just a nagging sadness and rage! Madonna Forever in Her Brilliance!
