"Your boy is not stupid, miss.
He does not learn easily
But he gets there bit by bit, miss."
So he bit his lip
And said "No more for a while."
'cause he knew
A boy's best friend is his mother.
"A man with money
To spend has no lack of friends, honey."
And he bit his lip.

And he was afraid
It was one of those beautiful
Spring mornings that made
You feel life was really worth living.
With the honest light of day on the world.
