Rockin' The Cradle

歌詞

Madeleine was a pretty little girl, why she didn't even hit sixteen All the boys in the neighbourhood took advantage of the little girl's dream Now they may try to hide it, but you just can't justify it They used her up and crushed her seeds of a flower that was never meant to be She needed love they gave her lies The promise of a paradise Now there's nothing left for Madeleine to sanctify Stuck in the middle can't solve the riddle on the outside Rockin' the cradle sure could be fatal on the outside Stuck in the middle can't solve the riddle on the outside Rockin' the cradle sure could be fatal on the outside Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah Such a shame, why she didn't last long, now who takes the blame for that All the noise in the neighbourhood, they say that Madeleine's getting fat They may try to fight it, but you just can't justify it They used her up and crushed her seeds of a flower that was never meant to be She gave the love she had, but then Nobody gave it back again Madeleine tried so hard to understand Stuck in the middle can't solve the riddle on the outside Rockin' the cradle sure could be fatal on the outside Stuck in the middle can't solve the riddle on the outside Rockin' the cradle sure could be fatal on the outside Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah What's the use of chasin' ghosts of men where responsibility comes cheap They came with no shame they came with seedy bar room seduction they seep But who weeps for Madeleine but for her own mother Mother Earth gave birth to mankind, mankind gave nothing in return Madeleine was a virgin clad, knew no better, Madeleine's been had Easy target, easy game, nobody's here to take the blame Nevertheless, hormones run wild She needed love they gave her lies The promise of a paradise Nothing left for Madeleine to sanctify
