《What’s the Matter Here?(Live)》歌词

[00:00:08] What's The Matter Here? (Live) - 10,000 Maniacs

[00:00:39] That young boy without a name

[00:00:41] Anywhere I'd know his face

[00:00:44] In this city the kid's my favorite

[00:00:48] I've seen him I've seen a

[00:00:52] I see him every day

[00:00:57] Seen him run outside

[00:01:00] Looking for a place to hide

[00:01:03] From his father

[00:01:05] The kid half naked

[00:01:07] And said to myself

[00:01:10] Oh what's the matter here

[00:01:16] I'm tired of the excuses

[00:01:19] Everybody uses

[00:01:21] He's your kid

[00:01:22] But who gave you the right

[00:01:26] To do this

[00:01:28] We live on morgan street

[00:01:36] Just ten feet between

[00:01:39] And his mother I never see her

[00:01:42] But her screams and cussing

[00:01:46] Well I hear them every day

[00:01:52] Threats like

[00:01:53] If you don't mind

[00:01:55] I will beat on your behind

[00:01:57] Slap you slap you silly

[00:02:00] Made me say

[00:02:05] Oh what's the matter here

[00:02:11] I'm tired of the excuses

[00:02:13] Everybody uses

[00:02:15] He's your kid

[00:02:17] Just do as you see fit

[00:02:20] But get this through

[00:02:23] That I don't approve

[00:02:25] Of what you did

[00:02:26] To your own flesh and blood

[00:03:05] Oh I have heard the excuses

[00:03:09] Everybody uses

[00:03:10] He's your kid

[00:03:12] Just do as you see fit

[00:03:15] But get this through

[00:03:18] That I don't approve

[00:03:20] Of what you did

[00:03:21] To your own flesh and blood

[00:03:32] Well if you don't sit

[00:03:34] In your chair straight

[00:03:37] I'll take this belt

[00:03:39] From around my waist

[00:03:42] And don't you think

[00:03:44] That I won't use it

[00:03:46] Answer me and take your time

[00:03:49] What could be the awful crime

[00:03:51] He could do at so young an age

[00:03:55] If I'm the only witness to your madness

[00:03:58] Offer me some words to balance

[00:04:01] Out what I see and what I hear

[00:04:05] All these cold and rude

[00:04:08] Things that you do

[00:04:10] I suppose you do

[00:04:11] Because he belongs to you

[00:04:14] And instead of love

[00:04:16] And the feel of warmth

[00:04:17] You've given him these cuts

[00:04:19] And sores that don't heal with time or his age

[00:04:27] And I want to say hi

[00:04:32] Want to say

[00:04:35] What's the matter here

[00:04:40] But I don't dare say

[00:04:45] What's the matter here

[00:04:49] But I don't dare say
