Alibi Child
Child lie beside me, your feet are like stone.
Why come to me, you've a bed of your own.
Do you know that I'm weary of lying alone.
Do you know such a thing isn't right?
Your father he sleeps ever night on the chair,
He says he's tormented by worries and cares,
And you'd only wake if he creaked up the stairs,
So he stays down there night after night.
You're an alibi child, an alibi child,
You're his reason why. and my reason for,
Everybody can see, we were where we should be,
You're the proof what we did was the right thing to do, nothing more.
When he first laid my skin on these very same sheets,
Just like our lives they were wedding day sweet,
But it soured and it slipped out from under our feet,

When they sacrificed workers for wealth.
So we thought that we two would be better off three,
My mother said 'Girl, you're a fool can't you see,
If you need an excuse, you'd be better off free,
You'd be fooling no-one but yourself.'
I know things are bitter, I know things are bad,
And for all of our troubles, I don't blame your dad,
But he's cold and he's distant and that makes me sad,
I have needs and they won't go away.
For better or worse, but how bad must it get,
It'll just carry on as it is, likes as not,
If it wasn't for you, I'd be off like a shot,
It's only for your sake I stay
