Ms. & Mr. Little Ones (Live/1995)

What is that that you're looking through
A pornographic magazine?
When I bet you don't even know how to spell the word

And you say you don't leave home unless you're strapped
With your uzi sub-machine
When you've just barely come into this world

Well, if a child's ways and actions
Reflect what they hear and see
Guess the only ones to blame are you and me

Ms. and Mr. Little Ones
Look what's happened to our world
Ms. and Mr. Little Ones
We're so sorry
Only chance for a better one
Is up to you and he
Please! Forgive us for what we've done
Ms. and Mr. Little Ones

What kind of name is that you're calling her?
I've heard that word before
But I don't think any parent would give their daughter a name so low

And about this extra paraphernalia
You saying you're carrying to get high
That won't take you anywhere you want to go

Well, you don't have to listen
'Cause it's clear for you to see
So many burned-out lives trapped in their misery

Ms. and Mr. Little Ones
Look what's happened to our world
Ms. and Mr. Little Ones
We're so sorry
Only chance for a better one
Is up to you and he
Please! Forgive us for what we've done
Ms. and Mr. Little Ones

Oh, I could rattle on about the good old days
And how life used to be
And even inwardly relive them vividly

But the best advice I can give to you is
We only got one time, one time
Treat each day like this is it
And give it the best you can

Please! Ms. and Mr. Little Ones
Look what's happened to our world
Ms. and Mr. Little Ones
We're so sorry
Only chance for a better one
Is up to you and he
Please! Forgive us for what we've done
Ms. and Mr. Little Ones

Oh! Ms. and Mr. Little Ones
I know, look what's happened to our world
Ms. and Mr. Little Ones
We're so sorry

There's so much we should and should have never done
That's why we're beggin' on our knees

Please! Forgive us for what we've done
Ms. and Mr. Little Ones
Ms. and Mr. Little Ones
Thank you
