This is a song about an innocent
Who died at the hands of a desperate man
He trusted those who he thought he knew
He trusted those who he looked up to
I`ll never forget the joy in his face
He`d laugh and he`d cry and he`d ruin my place
He`d drive me crazy, and he`d drive me wild
I used to scream and shout all day long
Now I hope you know this song
Is about a child who now has gone
And other children like him, too
Abused and used by what adults do
So don`t tell me about politics
Or all the problems of our economics
When you can`t look after what you can`t own
You scream and shout all day long
