Too Old To Go 'Way Little Girl |
Don’t go out in the street, little girl |
And don’t go out into town |
You don’t know who you’ll meet, little girl |
There are bad men around |
Your mother, she’s in love with you |
She tells you, you shouldn’t go with guys |
So go to bed at ten, let your mama tuck you in |
And turn on your Mickey Mouse night-light |
Then you make it with your mind |
Don’t go out into town, little girl |
Stay safe in the house, little girl |
Your mother’s stares, and the Enquirer’s tales |
Keep you hiding, denying |
Don’t go into the park, little girl |
You know those men are all the same |
Stay inside alone after dark, little girl |
Boys want just one thing |
Don’t talk about sex, you might get hexed |
God’ll punish you for your dirty mind |
Now, there is no escaping, and you’d enjoy a raping |
Just to find out the facts of life |
Mama says — maintain your pride |
Don’t go out into town, little girl |
Stay safe in the house, little girl |
Your mother’s stares, and the Enquirer’s tales |
Keep you hiding, denying |
Don’t go into your mind, little girl |
The windows, they’re only made of glass |
Don’t let me catch you trying to pry, little girl |
Mirrors of illusion tumble fast |
You’re too far gone for anyone |
I’d like to help, but I can only sigh |
You’d best maintain your mama’s pride |
'Cause you lost yours the time |
You obeyed when she said «Don't fraternize» |
No place to hide |
Don’t go out into town, little girl |
Stay safe in the house, little girl |
Your mother’s stares, and the Enquirer’s tales |
Keep you hiding, denying |
