Child Psychology |
I stopped talking when I was six years old |
I didn’t want anything more to do with the outside world |
I was happy being quiet |
But of course they wouldn’t leave me alone |
My parents tried every trick in the book |
From speech therapists to child psychologists |
They even tried bribery |
I could have anything, as long as I said it out loud |
Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it |
Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it |
Of course this episode didn’t last forever |
I’d made my point and it was time to move on |
To peel away the next layer of deceit |
And see what new surprises lay in store |
My school report said I showed no interest |
«A disruptive influence» |
I felt sorry for them in a way |
And when they finally expelled me |
It didn’t mean a thing |
Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it |
Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it |
At that time she stopped what she was doing |
She stopped playing, she stared, she had the facial grimacing |
And then the psychiatrist was saying |
«Julie, Julie, can you hear me? |
Can you open your eyes? |
Can you stick out your tongue?» |
And all of a sudden, Julie struck out |
The November day I came home |
The Christmas decorations were already up |
Spray on snow, coloured flashing lights |
And an artificial tree that played Silent Night |
Over and over again |
My parents welcomed me with loving arms |
But within an hour were back at each others throats |
Normal, happy childhood back on course |
Batteries not included |
Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it |
Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it |
Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it |
Life is unfair, kill yourself or get over it |
