Lyrics The Kids - Lou Reed
They're
taking
her
children
away
Because
they
said
she
was
not
a
good
mother
They're
taking
her
children
away
Because
she
was
making
it
with
sisters
and
brothers
And
everyone
else,
all
of
the
others
Like
cheap
officers
who
would
stand
there
and
flirt
in
front
of
me
They're
taking
her
children
away
Because
they
said
she
was
not
a
good
mother
They're
taking
her
children
away
Because
of
the
things
that
they
heard
she
had
done
The
black
Air
Force
sergeant
was
not
the
first
one
And
all
of
the
drugs
she
took,
every
one,
every
one
And
I
am
the
Water
Boy,
the
real
game's
not
over
here
But
my
heart
is
overflowin'
anyway
I'm
just
a
tired
man,
no
words
to
say
But
since
she
lost
her
daughter
It's
her
eyes
that
fill
with
water
And
I
am
much
happier
this
way
They're
taking
her
children
away
Because
they
said
she
was
not
a
good
mother
They're
taking
her
children
away
Because
number
one
was
the
girlfriend
from
Paris
The
things
that
they
did
- ah
- they
didn't
have
to
ask
us
And
then
the
Welshman
from
India,
who
came
here
to
stay
They're
taking
her
children
away
Because
they
said
she
was
not
a
good
mother
They're
taking
her
children
away
Because
of
the
things
she
did
in
the
streets
In
the
alleys
and
bars,
no
she
couldn't
be
beat
That
miserable
rotten
slut
couldn't
turn
anyone
away
I
am
the
Water
Boy,
the
real
game's
not
over
here
But
my
heart
is
overflowin'
anyway
I'm
just
a
tired
man,
no
words
to
say
But
since
she
lost
her
daughter
It's
her
eyes
that
fill
with
water
And
I
am
much
happier
this
way
