The Kids (Live Version)

They're taking her children away
Because they said, she's not a good mother
They're taking her children away
Because the things they'd said that she'd done
Oh, the black Air-Force sergeant was not the first one
And all the drugs took everyone, everyone

They're taking her children away
Because they said she's not a good mother
They're taking her children away
Because number two, the girlfriend from Paris
The things that they did, oh, yeah, they didn't have to ask us
And, uh, Welshman came from India to stay

Oh, I am the water boy, the real game's not over yet
Oh, but my heart is overflowin' each and everyday
Oh, I'm just a quiet man
Got very little to say
But since she lost her daughters
It's her heart fills with water
And me, I'm much happier that way 'cause that

They're taking her children away
Because they said she's not a good mother
They're taking her children away
'Cause of the things she did in the streets
In the alleys, in the gutter all day
She couldn't be beat
That miserable rotten slut couldn't turn anyone away

I am the water boy
I ain't got much to say, but my heart is overflowing each and everyday
I'm just a quiet man
Don't have much to say
But since she lost her daughters
It's a heart that fills with water
And me, I'm much happier that way 'cause that-
