They laugh and shout for everyone to see When they are together they are happy Little children with innocent smiles Who knows what may hide behind them
refrain: The sadness in the eyes of old folk around them The children's spiteful games They don't know you're hurting Stop and look around you For God's sake, look about you Evil games, evil games
They tie you up, they tear your heart in two One day they love, the next they hate you When you're not looking they'll be out at night To wander streets investigating
