sgw (stephen g. wadlow):
She came in through the bathroom window
Protected by a silver spoon
But now she sucks her thumb and wanders
By the banks of her own lagoon
Didn't anybody tell her?
Didn't anybody see?
Sunday's on the phone to Monday,
Tuesday's on the phone to me
She said she'd always been a dancer
She worked at 15 clubs a day
And though she thought I knew the answer
Well I knew what I could not say.
And so I quit the police department
And got myself a steady job
And though she tried her best to help me
She could steal but she could not rob
Didn't anybody tell her?
Didn't anybody see?
Sunday's on the phone to Monday,
Tuesday's on the phone to me
Oh yeah.

yandros (Chad Phillip Brown):
_What_a_Good_Boy_
when i was born they looked at me and said
what a good boy, what a smart boy, what a strong boy
and when you were born they looked at you and said
what a good girl, what a smart girl, what a pretty girl
we've got these chains that hang around our necks
people want to strangle us with them before we take our
first breath
afraid of change, afraid of staying the same
when temptation calls we just look away
this name is the hairshirt i wear
and this hairshirt is woven from your brown hair
this song is the cross that i bear
bear it with me, bear with me, bear with me
be with me tonight
i know that it isn't right
but be with me tonight
i go to school, i write exams
if i pass, if i fail, if i drop out, does anyone give a damn?
and if they do, they'll soon forget
'cause it won't take much for me to show that my life ain't over yet
i wake up scared, i wake up strange
i wake up wondering if anything in my life
is ever going to change
i wake up scared, i wake up strange
and everything around me stays the same
this name is the hairshirt i wear
and this hairshirt is woven from your brown hair
this song is the cross that i bear
bear it with me, bear with me, bear with me
be with me tonight
i know that it isn't right
but be with me tonight
i couldn't tell you that i was wrong
chickened out, grabbed a pen and paper, sat down and i wrote this
song
i couldn't tell you that you were right
so instead i looked in the mirror watched tv laid awake all night
we've got these chains that hang around our necks
people want to strangle us with them before we take our
first breath
afraid of change, afraid of staying the same
when temptation calls....
this name is the hairshirt i wear
and this hairshirt is woven from your brown hair
this song is the cross that i bear
bear it with me, bear with me, bear with me
be with me tonight
i know that it isn't right
but be with me tonight
when i was born they looked at me and said
what a good boy, what a smart boy, what a strong boy
and when you were born they looked at you and said
what a good girl, what a smart girl, what a pretty girl, hey
