Jewel - Little Sister lyrics
[Jewel - Little Sister lyrics]
Hey little sister
I heard you went to Mister So-and-So
Knock, knock
Knocking on his door again last night
Said you needed it bad
You know that ain't right
'Cause so many times you've come to me cry
Crying
Trying to stop, you said, "It hurts so bad"
But please, don't let you go back for more
My little sister is a zombie in a
Body with no soul or role
She has learned to play in a world today
Where nothing else matters, but it matters
We gotta start feeding our souls
Not our addictions or afflictions of pain
To avoid the same questions we must
Ask ourselves to get any answers
We gotta start feeding our souls
Have been lost to the millions with lots
Who feed on addiction
Selling pills and what's hot
I wish I could save her
From all their delusions, all the confusion
Of a nation that starves for salvation
But clothing is the closest
Approximation to God
And He only knows that drugs
Are all we know of love
Hey-ey, hey-ey, yeah
Everyday we starve while we eat white bread
And beer instead of a handshake or hug
We spill the pills and sweep
Them under the rug, hey hey
My little sister is a zombie in a
Body with no soul or role
She has learned to play in a world today
Where nothing else matters, but it matters
We gotta start feeding our souls
Yeah, yeah, yeah da, da, da, da, da, da
Hey little sister I heard that
You went to Mister So-and-So knock, knock
Knocking on his door again last night
Said you needed more
I heard you went to Mister So-and-So
Knock, knock
Knocking on his door again last night
Said you needed it bad
You know that ain't right
'Cause so many times you've come to me cry
Crying
Trying to stop, you said, "It hurts so bad"
But please, don't let you go back for more
My little sister is a zombie in a
Body with no soul or role
She has learned to play in a world today
Where nothing else matters, but it matters
We gotta start feeding our souls
Not our addictions or afflictions of pain
To avoid the same questions we must
Ask ourselves to get any answers
We gotta start feeding our souls
Have been lost to the millions with lots
Who feed on addiction
Selling pills and what's hot
I wish I could save her
From all their delusions, all the confusion
Of a nation that starves for salvation
But clothing is the closest
Approximation to God
And He only knows that drugs
Are all we know of love
Hey-ey, hey-ey, yeah
Everyday we starve while we eat white bread
And beer instead of a handshake or hug
We spill the pills and sweep
Them under the rug, hey hey
My little sister is a zombie in a
Body with no soul or role
She has learned to play in a world today
Where nothing else matters, but it matters
We gotta start feeding our souls
Yeah, yeah, yeah da, da, da, da, da, da
Hey little sister I heard that
You went to Mister So-and-So knock, knock
Knocking on his door again last night
Said you needed more
