| | | | ||
In a river the colour of lead | |||
Immerse a baby's head | |||
Wrap her up in the News Of The World | |||
Dump her on a doorstep, girl | |||
This night has opened my eyes | |||
And I will never sleep again | |||
You kicked and cried like a bullied child | |||
A grown man of twenty-five | |||
He said he'd cure your ills | |||
But he didn't and he never will | |||
So, save your life | |||
Because you've only got one | |||
The dream is gone | |||
But the baby is real | |||
Oh you did a good thing | |||
She could have been a poet | |||
Or, she could have been a fool | |||
Oh you did a bad thing | |||
And I'm not happy | |||
And I'm not sad | |||
A shoeless child on a swing | |||
Reminds you of your own again | |||
She took away your troubles | |||
Oh but then again she left pain | |||
So please save your life | |||
Because you've only got one | |||
The dream is gone | |||
But the baby is real | |||
Oh you did a good thing | |||
She could have been a poet | |||
Or, she could have been a fool | |||
Oh you did a bad thing | |||
And I'm not happy | |||
And I'm not sad | |||
