Tell the Children

lyrics by the Poison Girls

You made it rich, you made it big
You had it all but all you did was lose it

You had it rich, you had the world
In the palm of your hand
But all you did was lose it

What're you gonna tell the children, daddy?
What're you gonna tell the children

They gave you their love
They gave you their trust
They gave you it all
But that wasn't good enough for you
They gave you their love, they gave it all
Made you a star
But that wasn't good enough for you

What're you gonna tell the children, daddy?
What're you gonna tell the children

You had it all, you had it made
You had the world
And all you did was abuse it

You had it all, You had the world
You had it all and all you did was abuse it

What're you gonna tell the children, daddy?
What're you gonna tell the children

All you did was lose
