Daddy your a dreamer, daddy your a fool Finding out the hard way that life can be so cruel Drowning all your sorrows in a bottle full of lies Twenty years have come and gone, the rebel never dies Now it hurts to think of you As just a shadow of a man I never really knew Momma I was the best mistake That you ever made, can't you see papa if you ever gave a damn maybe you'd understand your Child Of Misery A million miles from heaven in a life of poverty The child that you abandon is alive and well in me I'm not looking for your mercy, I don't need your sympathy After all I'm still your ba*tard son, your child of misery
Now you refuse to see that the cross I'm wearing It's the one you gave to me Now moma, I was the best mistake, that you ever made can't you see And papa, if you ever gave a damn maybe you'd understand Your Child Of Misery You taught me love was pain But in my darkest moment an angel called my name Momma you were my saving grace You brought me that warm embrace, breathing new life into me And papa you were a tortured son But your not the only one, in a world of misery Why don't you look at me, look at me I'm your child misery, misery ,misery Don't let it pa** you by, Life pa**ed you by
