For a little boy I picked up on an ambulance
Oh little boy black and blue
Who was it that did this to you?
Who raised a hand and Innocence?
Did they proclaim their eminence
at a child's expense

Is this your beloved mother's psalm?
The stormy song beneath your calm
The one who nurished you from birth
Where you more trouble than you were worth
Oh was it her that did this to you
Little boy black and blue

Was it your father, that loving soul
Did the alcohol cause him to lose control?
Was it his patience tried and taunted
By the little boy he never wanted?
Oh was it him that did this to you
Little boy black and blue

Oh little boy black and blue
The autopsy confirms it was true
you were sodimized and strangled
you were beaten, broken and mangled
You must've screamed in agony
As bloodstained hands brought you more misery
Oh was it someone you never even knew
Little boy balck and blue
