Well I feel just like a child Yeah I feel just like a child Well I feel just like a child Well I feel just like a child From my womb to my tomb I guess I’ll always be a child
Well some people try and treat me like a man Yeah some people try and treat me like a man Well I guess they just don’t understand Well some people try and treat me like a man They think I know shit But that’s just it I’m a child
Well I need you to tell me what to wear Yeah I need you to help and comb my hair Yeah I need you to help tie my shoes Yeah I need you to come and keep me amused From my cave to my grave I guess I’ll always be a child
Well I need you to help me reach the door And I need you to walk me to the store And I need you to please explain the war And I need you to heal me when I’m sore You can tell by my smile That I’m a child
And I need you to sit me on your lap And I need you to make me take my nap Could you first pull out a book and Read me some of that Cause I need you to make me take my nap
And I need you to recognize my friends Cause they’re there even though you don’t see them They got their own share of plate and a seat You know I won’t touch my food unless they eat From the roof to the floor I'll crawl around some more I’m a child
And I need you to help me blow my nose And I need you to help me count my toes And I need you to help me put on my clothes And I need you to hide it when it shows From being my daddy’s sperm to being packed in an urn I’m a child
And when I steal you gotta smack me 'til I cry Don’t you stop 'til the tears run dry See I was born thinking under the sky Didn’t belong to a couple of old white guys From sucking on my mother’s breast To when they lay my tomb to rest I’m a child yeah
Well I’m a little child Well I’m a little child I guess I’m always be A little child ~
