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