The Alley of Dead Infant Clowns

We play in the streets shaded of grey We sing and dance but in the saddest of ways Duplessis turned us into little clowns In boarding houses of very strange towns Our mothers cried, we heard them we did Crying from the skies We became the faceless infants We became many shades of grey illusions We looked up towards tall figures Priests and Doctors of the state of hell Who declared we had no idea Of our own state or our own fate So we played in the alley of the dead Infants as clowns in institutes to drown Our pains well hidden behind our masks Little clowns running away in the fields A comedy of pain upon our naked souls You big ones played You had your roles Now we dance in the alley of dead infants You killed us at birth You sold tickets to the show Of dead clowns who dance To the federal benefactors afar Our demise was your pleasure The dead end road to our destiny Little clowns who dance to your whims Children with stolen mothers Our pain is your circus Little figurines dancing on our heads Experiments you say We must decry, we are not happy clowns Kill Kill Kill us all Makes us fall into happy listless sleep We must suffer death yet a second time So be it! We live in eternal pain In the alley of the dead infant clowns Notes: I was listening to this video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7x1n-0MmLNg It was the video itself and not the words that reminded me of an event here, I will post the info, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplessis_Orphans This is a very dark moment in history, and a sad moment, and that video inspired me to re-tell the story!
