Hop Along - Powerful Man lyrics

Sun's setting on the street Your dad told you not to look at me Down came the fists hard upon your head. I was the only other adult around I was the only other adult around I was 18 You were 8,maybe You were 10. He said, “She's not gonna help you” He said She's not- I just thought he looked like a powerful man My good friend convinced me to turn around My good friend said “I think I saw a light on” We walked through the dead halls looking for teachers and we found one but she didn't look too happy to see us She didn't look too happy to see us “How should I know” she said “The man you just described Could be anyone.” He said, “She's not gonna help you” He said She's not- I just thought he looked like A powerful man.
