As a Child

[Verse 1]

As a child

You have a doll

You see this doll

Sitting in her chair

You watch her face

Her knees apart

Her eyes of glass

In a secretive stare

[Chorus]

She seems to

She seems to

She seems to

Have a life

She seems to

She seems to

She seems to

Have a life

[Verse 2]

Pick up a stick

Dig up a crack

Dirt in the street

Becomes a town

All of the people

Depend on you

Not to hurt them

Or bang the stick down

[Chorus]

And they seem to

They seem to

They seem to

Have a life

They seem to

They seem to

They seem to

Have a life

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

As a child

You see yourself

And wonder why

Can't seem to move

Hand on the doorknob

Feel like a thing

One foot on the sidewalk

Too much to prove

[Chorus]

And you learn to

You learn to

You learn to

Have a life

You learn to

You learn to

You learn to

Have a life
