lyrics

in a river the colour of lead
immerse the baby's head
wrap her up in a news of the world
dump her on a doorstep, girl

this night has opened my eyes
and I will never sleep again

you kicked & cried like a bullied child
a grown man of twenty-five
oh, he said he'd cure your ills
but he didn't, and he never will

oh, please, save your life
because you've only got one
the dream is gone but the baby is real
oh, you did a good thing
she could've been a poet & she could've been a fool
oh, you did a bad thing
and I'm not happy and I'm not sad

a shoeless child on a swing
reminds you of your own again
oh, she took away your troubles
but, then again, she left pain

oh, please, save your life
because you've only got one
the dream is gone but the baby is real
oh, you did a good thing
she could've been a poet & she could've been a fool
oh, you did a bad thing
and I'm not happy and I'm not sad
