Protection

(album: Nothing Less - 2000)

The things you're doing are illegal in your own country
So you travel around the world looking for your heaven
Little girls are waiting there forced to be abused by you, yeah

It was their mother she made them scream
Even though they were all she had then
But she needed the money if she wanted to survive
So she had to be selfish she gave her kids away
Gave her kids away

And as she's sitting there she's playing with her girlfriends
She's playing with her dolls and tries to catch a butterfly, yeah
But when the monster comes in she has to put on make-up again

It was their mother she made them scream
Even though they were all she had then
But she needed the money if she wanted to survive
So she had to be selfish she gave her kids away
Gave her kids away

And as you're lying there the sheets you lie on are full of blood
The cross you pray on but where's your god
But there was no protection
No there was no protection
There was no protection, no, yeah

It was their mother she made them scream
Even though they were all she had then
But she needed the money if she wanted to survive
So she had to be selfish she gave her kids away
Gave her kids away
