Lyrics

You're just a little girl with blue eyes
Everybody looks at you
Well, it's your day

And you're stepping from the black car
but you'll be getting back in soon
and on your way

Little girl with blue eyes, there's a hole in your heart
And one between your legs
You've never had to wonder
which one he's going to fill
In spite of what he said

You'll never get away, hey-ey-ey
You'll give it up one day
Come what may

Dad's not got a shotgun but his look's enough to murder you
See what you've done

And forget about the paintings
'cos you'd better get the washing done
Oh, something's wrong

Little girl with blue eyes, there's a hole in your heart
And one between your legs
You've never had to wonder
which one he's going to fill
In spite of what he said

You'll never get away, hey-ey-ey
You'll give it up one day
Come what may

Face down on the pavement
Chalk lines round your little hands
Hit and run

And now a mother sits in silence
in a darkness she can't understand
Where you've gone

Little girl, there's a hole in your heart
And one between your legs
You've never had to wonder
which one he's going to fill
In spite of what he said

You'll never get away, hey-ey-ey
You'll give it up one day
Come what may
