The little girl lay so still
While you crept into her bed
She pretended not to notice you
While she sang into her head
She sang about the sun
She sang about the bees
She sang about her mummy
While you parted her little knees
You promised her a puppy
Some sweeties and a doll
You promised her the world
You promised her it all
You told her she was daddy's girl
Yet you treated her so bad
You took away her smile
And the childhood she never had
