Save the Life of My Child Lyrics

[Verse 1]
"Good God! Don't jump!" A boy sat on the ledge
An old man who had fainted was revived (He's alright)
And everyone agreed it would be a miracle indeed
If the boy survived

[Chorus]
"Save the life of my child!"
Cried the desperate mother

[Verse 2]
A woman from the supermarket ran to call the cops
"He must be high on something," someone said
Though it never made The New York Times
In The Daily News, the caption read

[Chorus]
"'Save the life of my child!'
Cried the desperate mother"

[Bridge]
(Hello, darkness, my old friend)
(I've come to talk with you again)

[Verse 3]
A patrol car passing by halted to a stop
Said officer MacDougal in dismay
"The force can't do a decent job
'Cause the kids got no respect for the law today"
(And blah, blah, blah)

[Chorus]
"Save the life of my child!"
Cried the desperate mother
"Oh, what's becoming of the children?"
People asking each other

[Verse 4]
When darkness fell, excitement kissed the crowd
And it made them wild
In the atmosphere of freaky holiday
When the spotlight hit the boy
And the crowd began to cheer
He flew away

[Outro]
Oh my grace, I got no hiding place
Oh my grace, I got no hiding place
Oh my grace, I got no hiding place
Oh my grace, I got no hiding place
Oh my grace, I got no hiding place...
