Girls can keep a secret Can't they And they didn't know For almost thirty weeks Before she started to show She'd always seem to grow so fast And all they ever had to do Was ask Boys can be such stupid bastards For a superior race Mistaking all her tears for laughter, I rest my case Maybe they were going steady But the baby, She just wasn't ready For this world This world can be cruel sometimes For the easily led Don't let yourself Be fooled by sunshine And what the Bible says I'm not saying the Bible lies It's just that some things don't apply To this world And all this comes to pass When a child is born at last Into the world at The Hotel Fleapit How could this girl keep her secret The prosecution and defence Stepped down And approached the bench As she lay the body on the table She wasn't ready fit or able For this world And all this comes to pass When a child is born at last In this world
You need these
