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