Lots of toys form laughter in a child's eyes
Your Santa Claus is coming
Your grace is all that I desire
Your tears will be my trophy
Don't you scream, smile for me
And let me in
CHORUS:
Rape is what they call it but I still call it love
Hush now little baby, come and give me a hug
Pain's what you call it, I call it joy
Here's your candy baby, we both will enjoy
I can say nothing to mum and dad
I'm scared to sleep alone
And every time I close my eyes, every time
I see his frightening face
CHORUS:
Rape is what they call it but I still call it love
Hush now little baby, come and give me a hug
Pain's what you call it, I call it joy
Here's your candy baby, we both will enjoy
(I can't sleep and I can't eat and I can't live and I can't dream)
All veiled faces, unsolved cases
Happy face, follow my pace
Leading us on the backstreet
Happy face you shall be
My way to ecstasy
I can't... Back on the backstreet with me
Don't you scream, smile for me
Don't you scream, just let me in!
CHORUS:
Rape is what they call it but I still call it love
Hush now little baby, come and give me a hug
Pain's what you call it, I call it joy
Here's your candy baby, we both will enjoy
(I can't sleep and I can't eat and I can't live and I can't dream)
{Don't you scream, smile for me
Don't you scream, just let me in!}
