Paragraph Lyric
{Words & Music: Hazel O'Connor}Red ringed the eyes of the women who cried to the nightBlack and possessed are the eyes of the man who drank to no foresightThen suffer little children, a haunted dreamBright eyes, scared eyes, a silent screamNow why'd you make me hit you - he'd sayLeave me alone I hate you - she'd saySuffer little children, hear and have no say[CHORUS:]A leopard can't change his spotsA tiger can't change his stripesEE-I-addioMum and Dad still have their frightsThis woman she takes a couple of pills to hideWhen there's no place to run you'd better just shut the door insideWell, riddle me when is a home not a homeWhen you're twenty floors up and your love has goneYour love was spent on fairy soapFor hands that do dishes and hang your hopesOn children who in turn look back to you[CHORUS]Riddle me when is a home not a homeWhen you're twenty floors up and your love has goneYour love was spent on fairy soapFor hands that do dishes and hang your hopesOn children who in turn look back to you[Repeat CHORUS to Fade]
