Pretty baby, do you ever cry ?
For I have given up on the things that you are
All those bad things
Don’t you know that we would like to love you ?

 

And you could be a boy or a girl
For who is this song of mine meant to be all about ?
Could be you or me
You may say, “well does it really matter ?”
But your ways will never work and will never last
You will surely fall from grace

 

Were you happy though someone had to die ?
Their lives were given up for the things that you are
All those bad things
Don’t you know these things will come back at you ?
Cos you can’t imagine a world without hurting others
As you dance upon their grave

 

Joy, it cannot be a stolen thing
Leave it alone
And will you look so cool
When all that you took disappears ?
Could you have your fun
If not for the trust of those
All around you ?

 

Pretty baby, have you ever cried ?
By now you must have felt a thousand things
Many things that you never knew
It is not too late to turn back and say sorry
But I wonder how many can
How long does it take to realise
You’ve got to be good ?

 


 

A STOLEN THiNG
