Scream Baby

scream a little louder,
I don't think they heard you,
Cry a little harder,
Maybe they would care

Little baby, don't have nightmares,
Daddy won't be home,
His secretary's way to pretty,
To be left all alone

Don't fall down and scrape your knee,
Mommy's way too busy,
All that vodka, those rum and coke,
Gotta keep 'em fizzy

Please don't get in trouble,
I know what they'll do,
Bruises hidden, mottled purple
Reactions one and two,

The clock strikes twelve,
Now what will they do,
The bloody note is all you left,
Saying you were through
