I Feel Like A Child lyrics

PLAY DEVENDRA BANHART I Feel Like A Child video Well, I feel just like a child.
Yeah, I feel just like a child.
Well, I feel just like a child.
Well, I feel just like a child.

From my womb to my tomb I guess I`ll always be a child.

Well, some people try and treat me like a man.
Well, some people try and treat me like a man.
Well, I guess they just don`t understand
Well, some people try and treat me like a man.

They think I know shit but that`s just it,
I`m a child.

Well, I need you to tell me to wear,
Yeah, I need you to help me comb my hair,
Yeah, I need you to help me tie my shoes,
Yeah, I need you to come keep me ammused.

From my cave to my grave I guess I`ll always be a child

I need you to help me reach the door,
And, I need you to walk me to the store,
I need you to please explain the war,
I need you to heal me when I`m sore.

You can tell by my smile,
That I`m a child.

And, I need you to sit me on your lap
I ned you to make me take my nap
can you first pull out a book and read me some of that
cause I need you to make me take my nap.

And, I need you to recognize my friends,
`Cause they`re there even though you don`t see them,
They got their own chair , a plate, and a seat,
You know I won`t touch my food unless they eat.

From the roof to the floor I`ll crawl around some more
I`m a child.

I need you to help me blow my nose,
And, I need you to help me count my toes,
And I need you to help me put on my clothes,
And I need you to hide it when it shows.

From being my daddy`s sperm to being packed in an urn

And, when I steal you got to smack me lit I cry,
Don`t you stop till the tears run dry.
See, I was born thinkin out under the sky,
Didn`t belong to a couple old white guys.

From sucking on my mama`s breast to when they lay my soul to rest.
I`m a child.

Well, I`m a little child.
Oh, I`m a little child.
I guess I`ll always be,
A little child.
