there was never a chance to get away

when was it only ever but perverse

why could they take a stone and break your arms

there could be nothing worse

except to live

live little girl

sold in slavery

twenty-five men

have their way in you

burned upon the breast

with a cigarette

nothing is worse than to be born and live

there was someone at home you cared

when was there anyone who cared for you

why could they a spoon and break your teeth

there could be nothing worse

except to live

live blighted girl

sold in slavery

twenty-five men

have their way in you

burned upon the feet

with a cigarette

earth has lost and lost its youth

tomorrow, tomorrow will be no happy days

you will die and die and falkland road

your ashes will reek of sweat
