Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Said the wait child, magic child, work it on out, now work it
The wait child, pinball child, pool hall child hurts
The wait child, pacin' child, forth back, now hurts
The wait child, neon light, late night lights hurt
[Verse 2]
Oh, gonna hurt some child, child
Gonna hurt some, whoa, my baby
[Verse 3]
Said the wait child, bruised ball child, pride slapped child hurts
The wait child, crest felled child, tear eyed child hurts
The wait child, bus stop child, late come child hurts
The wait child, platform walk, idle talk hurts
[Verse 4]
Oh, gonna hurt some child, child
Gonna hurt some, whoa, my baby
[Verse 5]
I said child, child, starin' into the streetlight
Messed up child, lonely boy tonight
Kick the wall, turn the street and back again
Oh boy, you've been forgotten
[Verse 6]
Child, child, starin' into the streetlight
Messed up child, lonely boy tonight
Kick the wall, turn the street and back again
Oh boy, you've been forgotten
[Verse 7]
I said the wait child, pacing child, forth and back now hurts
The wait child, bus stop child, late come child hurts
The wait child, pool hall child, pin table now hurts
The wait child, magic child, work it on out now, work it
[Verse 8]
Oh, gonna hurt some child, child, child, child, child
Gonna hurt some, whoa, my baby
