My
children
learned
just
the
same
as
yours,
Мои
дети
учатся
так
же,
как
и
твои,
As
long
as
nobody
tries
to
close
the
door.
Пока
никто
не
пытается
закрыть
дверь.
They
cry
with
pain
when
the
knife
cuts
deep,
Они
плачут
от
боли,
когда
нож
режет
глубоко,
They
close
their
eyes
when
they
wanna
sleep.
Они
закрывают
глаза,
когда
хотят
спать.
(Ging,
gi-gi-gi-gi-ging.)
