Cover your ears boys and girls
Both your ears and your eyes
You don’t know what is what
You don’t know what is what
You don’t know what is what
Your ignorance covers your lies
Cover your lies boys and girls
Cover the big, little and white
You know it isn’t right
You know it isn’t sane
You know it isn’t right
What daddy does to you each night
How come it happens to be so?
Cover your dads boys and girls
For fear of making it only worse
It’s just a little secret
That no one has to know
It’s just your little secret
Bite your lip try not to curse
Cover your sins boys and girls
You know it’s nearly time for bed
He’s feeling hot today
He’s feeling hot tonight
He’s feeling hot today
Sometimes you wish that you were dead
How come it happens to be so?
How come it happens to be so?
I just wanted to know
Wanted to know
Holler away boys and girls
Scream out your tonsils and your lungs
Tell mommy what he did
Tell mommy what he did
Tell mommy what he did
Tell her what daddy did last night
How come it happens to be so?
