Sweet Child of Nothingness

Sweet child of nothingness born into the street The gift of life is all you get And that is not so sweet The tenement will be your castle Cut right close and cheap perfume will mark you and you'll only get escape by running in your street Sweet child of nothingness how you're gonna rise? You're looking up from way down under into indifferent eyes The hand that reaches out to help Will not be there when it takes what it wants and leaves you Doubled up in pain to make it if you can (Make it if you can) Sweet child of nothingness you're looking good today All the men turn and wonder what kind of games you play Try to catch a rich man's smile Go search for love, girl, find some guy to keep you in the most expensive cage then, see if that's the end See if that's the end (See if that's the end)
