Tears for Fears - Suffer The Children lyrics

It's a sad affair

When there's no one there

He calls out in the night

And it's so unfair

At least it seems that way

When you gave him his life

And all this time he's been getting you down

You ought to pick him up when there's no one around

And convince him

Just talk to him

'Cos he knows in his heart you won't be home soon

He's an only child in an only room

And he's dependant on you

And it seems so strange

That at the end of the day

Making love can be so good

But the pain of birth

What is it worth

When it don't turn out the way it should

And all this time he's been getting you down

You ought to pick him up when there's no one around

And convince him

Just talk to him

'Cos he knows in his heart you won't be home soon

He's an only child in an only room

And he's dependant on you

Oh, he's dependant on you

Suffer

Suffer the children

Suffer

Suffer the children

Suffer

Suffer the children

Suffer

Suffer the children

Suffer

Suffer the children

Suffer

Suffer the children
