I didn't belong to a couple of old wise guys
You can tell by my smile that I'm a child
From my womb to my tomb, I guess I'll always be a child
Well, some people try and treat me like a man
See I was born thinkin' under the sky
They think I know shit but that's just it, I'm a child
From being my daddy's sperm to being packed in an urn, I'm a child
Yeah, I need you to help and tie my shoes
Well, I need you to help me reach the door
You know I won't touch my food unless they eat
And I need you to heal me when I'm sore
Yeah, some people try and treat me like a man
Could you first pull out a book and read me some of that?
'Cause they're there even though you don't see them
Yeah, I need you to come and keep me amused
And I need you to help me blow my nose
And I need you to make me take my nap
From my cave to my grave, I guess I'll always be a child
Yeah, some people try and treat me like a man
Well, I'm a little child, oh, I'm a little child
And I need you to please explain the war
To when they lay my soul to rest, I'm a child
Don't you stop 'til the tears run dry
And I need you to help me count my toes
Well, I need you to tell me what to wear
They got their own chair, plate, and a seat
And I need you to help me put on my clothes
Well, I feel just like a child
And I need you to sit me on your lap
And I need you to hide it when it shows
From sucking on my mama's breast
And I need you to recognize my friends
Yeah, I need you to help me comb my hair
And I need you to walk me to the store
And when I steal, you gotta smack me 'til I cry
'Cause I need you to make me take my nap
Well, I feel just like a child
Well, I guess they just don't understand
From the roof to the floor, I crawl around some more, I'm a child
