"Little Boy" lyrics

"Little Boy"

Hey come here, let me look at you
Your virgin eyes they are so blue
Doesn't anyone take care of you little boy?

Where's your mommy, is she out again?
No doubt she's got a pen
Crossing numbers of a card

This world has got no heroes
Where it's going nobody knows
This world is such a cruel place

And your Daddy's workin' down a mine
He never seems to have the time
For a little boy like you, little boy

Shouldn't you, you be at school
Teacher finds out, you'll get the rule
But it's your mommy who is the fool
She is a fool

This world has got no heroes
Where it's going nobody knows
This world is such a cruel place

You'll leave home one day, it's true
Then their gonna want you
But it's too late, you've gone

This world has got no heroes
Where it's going nobody knows
This world is such a cruel place
