From the recording Singles Volume Two
Lyrics
CHILD
She was a child when we first met
Today she is just the same
One of those types aren’t there yet
Always finding others to blame
I never thought that much of her
But still she persisted on
When I asked what might have just occurred
Silence assisted the con
So I tipped my hat and walked away
For there was nothing to keep me around
But her silence continued to soil the day
I resisted bringing the hammer down
I decided to bring the hammer down (last time)
Sometimes you just find
Those who aren’t worth the toil
With all of their petty worthless crimes
That you find so easy to foil
So you move ahead and you don’t look back
At the moldering little girl
Who never grows and wants to attack
But is too afraid of the world
