Little boy, if you run away again,
Press your luck inside your mama's shoes,
You'll be out dancing down in the lion's den.
I guess you didn't ever think you'd lose.

I know it's hard sleeping on those streets,
It's better than your daddy's gold.
All the drivers put their secrets in your sheets,
You know what they were looking for.

I don't remember why I stopped dreaming,
All my imaginary friends are gone.
Lock the door 'cause dad's been drinking,
Child, your mother's never coming home.

Oh my god,
What have you done?

I'm seeing children seeing things that I think children shouldn't see,
For you look just like your mother,
Yeah yeah yeah yeah.
I'm seeing children seeing things that I think children shouldn't see,
For you look just like your mother,
Yeah.

Mom, I guess I've been (...) in the sheets,
I love to hear them say I look like you.
I'll win the heart of every broken man I meet,
Now mama tell me, what's a girl to do?

I am the daughter of 18 wheelers,
The sister of your broken heart.
I am the goddess of the street healers,
I am the lover that you tore apart.

Oh my god,
What have I done?

I'm seeing children seeing things that I think children shouldn't see,
For you look just like your mother,
Yeah yeah yeah yeah.
I'm seeing children seeing things that I think children shouldn't see,
For you look just like your mother,
Yeah.

Oh you fell asleep in the corner of your eyes,
Out of the house of cards,
(...)

I'm seeing children seeing things that I think children shouldn't see,
For you look just like your mother,
Yeah yeah yeah yeah.
I'm seeing children, seeing things that I think children shouldn't see,
For you look just like your mother,
Yeah.

Well, I am the child who,
The only child who,
I am the child who,
The child who saw everything.

    General Comment:It's about 'The Heart Is Deceitful Above All Things' by J.T.Leroy (aka. Laura Albert) which is also where the quote comes from "We at the house of DOGS protect our own" x

    General Comment:I think its about a girl who's been abused by her father, and turns into a whore cause of it. He may have abused her sexually cause she looks like her mother whose run off. she just fucks anything now.

    "All the drivers put their secrets in your sheets" are all the blokes she picks up and has sex with.

    the whole lock your door, dads been drinking line is pretty self explanitory.

    General Comment:Songs about a kid (boy) who dresses up like his mother and goes out as a prostitute. Then this and that happens and it just so happens daddy screws his son.

    General Comment:There were a few errors in the posted lyrics, the one part goes "Alive up in the sheets." And it's "Boy you look just like your mother." The song itself, seems to be about gender confusion.
