Kimya Dawson - Stinky Stuff lyrics

Once I knew a little girl Who refused to eat She just banged her head against the floor and Didn't sleep for a week Both of her parents were mentally delayed and they Lived in constant fear that their daughter would be taken away So instead of getting help they just pretended Everything was okay So I called the social worker and said Something is wrong, she said You know how she turns into a brat when she doesn't get what she wants I'll call you later when I'm done playing with my dog Sometimes the world is dark and cold And no matter what I'm told I'm scared and I'm alone and I'm five years old Will you hold my hand? Once I knew a little guy Runny nose and bruises on his thighs and I said hey What happened here He looked at me and said Well my dad he hates me So I called the social worker confidentially And she called his mom and said Guess who thinks your husband is beating up your son Next thing I knew that family packed up And they were gone Back pressed flat against the wall And they hit me with a ball Pretend it didn't hurt at all Will you hold my hand? Maybe I'll call Oprah There must be something she can do I'll say I'm fat and I'm black and I'm sick of seeing little kids feel blue And me and Oprah we will fix CPS And we'll make sure that people working with kids have bigger hearts than the rest And if you want to have a baby You'll have to past a test It s**s when for a little kid living means lying And the only place you feel safe is pretending your flying And you'd rather be caught dead that be caught crying Will you hold my hand? Abuse and neglect are highly contagious so I called that social worker up and I said Hey lady you're outrageous She said smarty pants You want a gold star? I said no I wanna bash your head in With a crowbar But the cycle of violence has to end somewhere Come and take a swim with me We'll wait under water patiently For the output of endorphins as we're swallowed by the sea Will you hold my hand? Will you hold my hand? Will you hold my hand?
