And it all began like a new routine[00:00:00]
We were drunk we were tired we were sick[00:00:04]
We were in between[00:00:06]
And the jig was up when the sun went down[00:00:10]
It was dark it was mean it was black[00:00:12]
There was not a sound[00:00:15]
And when the morning papers did not come[00:00:19]
We shook our heads[00:00:22]
We knew that we were done and so we sat and prayed for[00:00:23]
Just another try[00:00:27]
Throw your babies in the water[00:00:32]
Let your hair down like you used to[00:00:38]
And tell all your sons and daughters[00:00:45]
They don't have to grow up like you[00:00:51]
They're not supposed to[00:00:55]
Now the birds don't sing and the cars won't go[00:01:05]
There's a lump in your throat[00:01:08]
There's no songs on the radio[00:01:10]
And the walls caved in and the well went dry[00:01:14]
And the mountains shook[00:01:17]
And the people all wondered why[00:01:19]
And in the morning I woke up to find[00:01:23]
There's someone here[00:01:27]
There's someone in my mind[00:01:28]
And so I hung my head[00:01:30]
And I began to cry[00:01:31]
Throw your babies in the water[00:01:37]
Let your hair down like you used to[00:01:43]
And tell all your sons and daughters[00:01:50]
They don't have to grow up like you[00:01:56]
They're not supposed to[00:02:00]
Cradled whipped[00:02:04]
And mother's tongue[00:02:05]
It's not hard to see what went wrong[00:02:07]
If I told you once I told you twice[00:02:16]
You can beg you can kneel you can pray[00:02:19]
You'll be sacrificed[00:02:21]
And when the morning papers did not come[00:02:25]
We shook our heads[00:02:28]
We knew that we were done and so we sat and prayed for[00:02:30]
Just another try[00:02:33]
Throw your babies in the water[00:02:38]
Let your hair down like you used to[00:02:45]
And tell all your sons and daughters[00:02:51]
They don't have to grow up like you[00:02:57]
They're not supposed to[00:03:02]
Throw your babies in the water[00:03:06]
Let your hair down like you used to[00:03:12]
And tell all your sons and daughters[00:03:19]
They don't have to grow up like you[00:03:24]
They're not supposed to[00:03:30]
