《Child Then》歌词

[00:00:00] Child Then - Slapp Happy

[00:00:15] I could run before I learned to walk

[00:00:19] Tore the tongues out of my shoes

[00:00:21] So they wouldn't talk

[00:00:23] I was a child then

[00:00:34] Seven years at a private school

[00:00:39] Only taught me how to play the fool

[00:00:43] I was a child then

[00:00:47] But I would do the same again

[00:00:53] My counsel is my own to keep

[00:01:00] And yes my conscience lets me sleep

[00:01:25] My sisters would behave like trees

[00:01:30] Whispering of mysteries

[00:01:33] That were beyond my ken

[00:01:39] Midnight out by Crater Lake

[00:01:44] Wondering which pill to take

[00:01:47] I was a child then

[00:01:52] But I would do the same again

[00:01:58] Take another backward leap

[00:02:05] And yes my conscience lets me sleep

[00:02:58] If I'd known then what I know now

[00:03:07] I'd have done it anyhow

[00:03:17] I never thought at forty-five

[00:03:26] I'd still be alive be alive

[00:03:37] Sold my soul for the highest bid

[00:03:41] Feel no remorse for what I did

[00:03:45] I was a child then

[00:03:49] But I would do the same again

[00:03:55] My counsel is my own to keep

[00:04:02] And yes my conscience lets me sleep
