children whimpering
alone in a yard
cause their mommie's on drugs is isolated and alone
cause she's in the kitchen w/ a rusty blade trying to
do herself in
the children are howling
but no one comes out of their cozy houses
cause they're too busy watching tv and cooking dinner
and helping w/ homework to care about children
alone in a yard
