What's The Matter Here? (Live) - 10,000 Maniacs[00:00:08]
That young boy without a name[00:00:39]
Anywhere I'd know his face[00:00:41]
In this city the kid's my favorite[00:00:44]
I've seen him I've seen a[00:00:48]
I see him every day[00:00:52]
Seen him run outside[00:00:57]
Looking for a place to hide[00:01:00]
From his father[00:01:03]
The kid half naked[00:01:05]
And said to myself[00:01:07]
Oh what's the matter here[00:01:10]
I'm tired of the excuses[00:01:16]
Everybody uses[00:01:19]
He's your kid[00:01:21]
But who gave you the right[00:01:22]
To do this[00:01:26]
We live on morgan street[00:01:28]
Just ten feet between[00:01:36]
And his mother I never see her[00:01:39]
But her screams and cussing[00:01:42]
Well I hear them every day[00:01:46]
Threats like[00:01:52]
If you don't mind[00:01:53]
I will beat on your behind[00:01:55]
Slap you slap you silly[00:01:57]
Made me say[00:02:00]
Oh what's the matter here[00:02:05]
I'm tired of the excuses[00:02:11]
Everybody uses[00:02:13]
He's your kid[00:02:15]
Just do as you see fit[00:02:17]
But get this through[00:02:20]
That I don't approve[00:02:23]
Of what you did[00:02:25]
To your own flesh and blood[00:02:26]
Oh I have heard the excuses[00:03:05]
Everybody uses[00:03:09]
He's your kid[00:03:10]
Just do as you see fit[00:03:12]
But get this through[00:03:15]
That I don't approve[00:03:18]
Of what you did[00:03:20]
To your own flesh and blood[00:03:21]
Well if you don't sit[00:03:32]
In your chair straight[00:03:34]
I'll take this belt[00:03:37]
From around my waist[00:03:39]
And don't you think[00:03:42]
That I won't use it[00:03:44]
Answer me and take your time[00:03:46]
What could be the awful crime[00:03:49]
He could do at so young an age[00:03:51]
If I'm the only witness to your madness[00:03:55]
Offer me some words to balance[00:03:58]
Out what I see and what I hear[00:04:01]
All these cold and rude[00:04:05]
Things that you do[00:04:08]
I suppose you do[00:04:10]
Because he belongs to you[00:04:11]
And instead of love[00:04:14]
And the feel of warmth[00:04:16]
You've given him these cuts[00:04:17]
And sores that don't heal with time or his age[00:04:19]
And I want to say hi[00:04:27]
Want to say[00:04:32]
What's the matter here[00:04:35]
But I don't dare say[00:04:40]
What's the matter here[00:04:45]
But I don't dare say[00:04:49]
