A Sad Cliché
She's causing a commotion it's a curious thing
Everyone thought she was a delicate thing
And now they're making her learn the hard way
Say, what's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?
They're dragging her through courtrooms with tears on her face
She cries out for help from God in disgrace
But all she gets is the chairman of the bench
Mentioning background, and would it not benefit all if she went . .
INSTRUMENTAL
She comes from a family who seem unaware
That we're a nation of Christians love and money to share
And we have the best education system today
Say, what's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?
"We simply cannot tolerate this sort of behaviour
in the community"
"Young people have more opportunities today than
ever before, I really think ..."
"You have to be taught a lesson"
"You do not seem to understand, we're trying to help"
"In view of the circumstances we are going to
send you to a detention centre
for six months, it is for your own good you understand".
