[Samples from \"Suffer The Little Children\"]

[Interview with Johnny]
“You’ve just heard about Johnny. He’s been causing discipline problems at Pennhurst. So they thought they would send him to Q2. We thought you would like to see where Johnny lives. Johnny, can you talk?”
“Yes.”
“Do you like it here at Pennhurst?”
“No.”
“Why not John?”
“Um. There’s…”
“Let me ask you this John. Do you remember living anywhere except Pennhurst?”
“No.”
“Do you like talking to the people up here?”
“Yeah.”
“Why John?”
“‘cause they like to talk to me.”
“How about the other kids, the ones that can talk, do they like to talk to you too?”
“Yes.”
“Do you like to talk to them better than the kids up here?”
“Yes.”
“Have you been talking more lately or less?”
“Less.”
“Why are you here in Q2 John?”
“I did something I wasn’t supposed to be doing.”
“So they punished you and put you here?”
“Yes.”
“And they do this to you all the time John?”
“Yes.”
(The “Why are you here” question and answer is then repeated twice, then Johnny’s answer is just repeated as the second sample plays over.)

[Pennhurst Conditions]
“The doctor had warned me that it would be bad… it was horrible. There was one attendant for perhaps 50 severely and profoundly retarded children”

“The ones that we saw were the most severely and profoundly retarded. There are thousands here like them, not going to school, sitting on the ward all day, not being talked to by anyone, only one or two or three people to take care of 70 people on the ward… Sharing the same toilets, contracting the same diseases.”

“Can the children be trained?”
“Yes. Every child can be trained. You know, these kids… There’s no effort, we don’t know what these kids are capable of doing.”

[Verse 1]
A sign
That I’ve been praying for
A solemn augur, pure and true
To tell me what to do
A true
God that I can settle for
And spin my body in a long, slow arc
Like how my problems are

[Chorus]
And I’ve been waiting on everyone
And I’ve been waiting on
Cause I’ve been waiting on anyone
To show up and throw me out [of here]
Yeah, I’ve been waiting on anyone (Because I don’t belong!)
And I’m not even sure I even know those words
Cause I’ve been waiting on anyone
And I’ve been waiting on
Cause I’ve been waiting on

[Verse 2]
A song
That I can sing along
Well, I’ll just wait and track the soot-tracks
Home so I can be alone

And I’ve been waiting on everyone
I’ve been waiting on
Cause I’ve been waiting on anyone
To show up and throw me out of here

[Pennhurst Conditions]
