My baby was dying Turning so blue Four feet from me dying My head was like glue I couldn't save my baby (He couldn't save his baby) Loaded and sinking To the vegetable zone She just kept on sinking Now she's mineral and bone I couldn't save my baby (He couldn't save his baby) We lived on the first floor We lived in two rooms Now my poor baby She lives with the worms A head full of rocks Is a heavy, heavy head I was watching a movie Night of the Living Dead Now people they whisper Now people they stare They say I couldn't save her Even though I was right there I couldn't save my baby (He couldn't save his baby) We lived on the first floor We lived in two rooms Now my poor baby She lives with the worms
