What's The Matter Here - 10,000 Maniacs[00:00:00]

That young boy without a name[00:00:22]

Anywhere I'd know his face.[00:00:24]

In this city the kid's my favorite.[00:00:27]

I've seen him. I see him every day.[00:00:31]

Seen him run outside looking for a place[00:00:41]

To hide from his father,[00:00:45]

The kid half naked and i said to myself "O,[00:00:49]

What's the matter here?"[00:00:55]

I'm tired of the excuses everybody uses,[00:01:00]

He's their kid I stay out of it,[00:01:06]

But who gave you the right to do this?[00:01:11]

We live on Morgan Street;[00:01:19]

Just ten feet between and his mother, I never see her,[00:01:21]

But her screams and cussing, I hear them every day.[00:01:29]

Threats like: "If you don't[00:01:39]

Mind I will beat on your behind,"[00:01:41]

"Slap you, slap you silly."[00:01:44]

Made me say, "O, what's the matter here?"[00:01:48]

I'm tired of the excuses everybody uses,[00:01:57]

He's your kid, do as you see fit,[00:02:03]

But get this through that I don't approve[00:02:08]

Of what you did to you own flesh and blood.[00:02:13]

I'm tired of the excuses everybody uses,[00:02:34]

He's your kid, do as you see fit,[00:02:40]

But get this through that I don't approve[00:02:45]

Of what you did to you own flesh and blood.[00:02:49]

"If you don't sit on this chair straight[00:03:02]

I'll take this belt from around my waist[00:03:08]

And i don't you think that I won't use it!"[00:03:12]

Answer me and take your time,[00:03:18]

What could be the awful crime he could do[00:03:20]

At such young an age?[00:03:23]

If I'm the only witness to your madness[00:03:27]

Offer me some words to balance out[00:03:30]

What I see and what I hear.[00:03:33]

Oh these cold and lowly things that you do[00:03:36]

I suppose you do because he belongs to you[00:03:42]

And instead of love and the feel of warmth[00:03:47]

You've given him these cuts and sores[00:03:50]

Don't heal with time or with age.[00:03:52]

And I want to say[00:03:59]

And I want to say "What's the Matter here?"[00:04:03]

But I don't dare say.[00:04:13]

"What's the Matter here?"[00:04:18]

But I don't dare say.[00:04:23]
