Frances Quinlan - Powerful Man lyrics

[Verse 1] Sun setting on the street Your dad told you not to look at me Down came the fist hard upon your head [Pre-Chorus 1] I was the only other adult around I was the only other adult around I was 18, you were 8, maybe you were 10 [Chorus 1] He said she's not gonna help you He said she's not I just thought he looked like a powerful man I just thought he looked like a powerful man [Verse 2] My good friend convinced me to turn around My good friend says, 'I think I saw a light on' We walked through the dead halls Looking for teachers and we found one [Pre-Chorus 2] 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 "That man you just described could be anyone" [Chorus 1] He said she's not gonna help you He said she's not I just thought he looked like a powerful man I just thought he looked like a powerful man [Chorus 2] I just thought he looked like a powerful man I just thought he looked like a powerful man I just thought he looked like a powerful man I just thought he looked like a powerful Looked like a powerful Looked like a powerful Looked like a powerful man
