Well I feel just like a child   yeah I feel just like a child   well I feel just like a child   well I feel just like a child   From my womb to my tomb   I guess I’ll always be a child      Well some people try and treat me like a man   Yeah some people try and treat me like a man   Well I guess they just don’t understand   Yeah some people try and treat me like a man   They think I know shit   But that’s just it   I’m a child      Well I need you to tell me what to wear   Yeah I need you to help and comb my hair   Yeah I need you to help me tie my shoes   Yeah I need you to come and keep me amused   From my cave to my grave   I guess I’ll always be a child      Well I need you to help me reach the door   And I need you to walk me to the store   And I need you to please explain the war   And I need you to heal me when I’m sore   You can tell by my smile   That I’m a child      And I need you to sit me on your lap   And I need you to make me take my nap   Could you first pull out a book and   Read me some of that   'Cause I need you to make me take my nap      And I need you to recognize my friends   'Cause they’re there even though   You don’t see them   They got their own chair, plate, and a seat   You know I won’t touch my food   Unless they eat   From the roof to the floor   I crawl around some more   I’m a child      And I need you to help me blow my nose   And I need you to help me count my toes   And I need you to help me put on my clothes   And I need you to hide it when it shows   From being my daddy’s sperm   To being packed in an urn   I’m a child      And when I steal you gotta   Smack me til I cry   Don’t you stop til the tears run dry   See I was born thinking under the sky   I didn’t belong to a couple of old wise guys   From sucking on my mama’s breast   To when they lay my soul to rest   I’m a child   Well I guess I’m always be   A little child
