The Tiger Lillies - Junkie lyrics
[The Tiger Lillies - Junkie lyrics]
Our child it was an accident
No plan involved our sense of responsibility
In heroin dissolved we hardly had the will
To look after ourselves
Left the baby in a cupboard on the shelf
My own child I killed it from neglect
Put it in a cupboard, let filth it infect
Its mother was a junkie
It's mother is a whore
So when the baby did cry I just it ignored
I left it in the cupboard
Left it in filth to die
Smacked out on the floor in the lounge I lie
The opiates’ golden mist into my veins
Goodbye while in a cupboard in it's
Hell that baby would cry
While it's mother on the street
Her body would sell
That baby’s mother and father
They came from Hell
So in that cupboard baby will die
Without a kindly face to wave or say goodbye
No plan involved our sense of responsibility
In heroin dissolved we hardly had the will
To look after ourselves
Left the baby in a cupboard on the shelf
My own child I killed it from neglect
Put it in a cupboard, let filth it infect
Its mother was a junkie
It's mother is a whore
So when the baby did cry I just it ignored
I left it in the cupboard
Left it in filth to die
Smacked out on the floor in the lounge I lie
The opiates’ golden mist into my veins
Goodbye while in a cupboard in it's
Hell that baby would cry
While it's mother on the street
Her body would sell
That baby’s mother and father
They came from Hell
So in that cupboard baby will die
Without a kindly face to wave or say goodbye
