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