hey little girl
were you waiting on me
to supply your starving soul
with a secret recipe
did you hope for some miracle
to get you back on your feet

hey little girl
how you sit here all alone
like a dog on a leash
waiting for a bone
don’t rely on your medicine
to put you safely to sleep

sha la la la
sha la la la
there’s no need to skip the better part
sha la la la
sha la la la
the only sin is a lack of heart

even gine your ancient blessings
by the end of the day
one look is enough to blow it all away

sha la la la
sha la la la
there’s no need to skip the better part
sha la la la
sha la la la
the only sin is a lack of heart

sha la la la
sha la la la
you don’t need to take your trouble far
sha la la la
sha la la la
the only sin is a lack of heart
