And That Is That

Three kids sit in the cold with no heat they sit there alone with nothing to eat AND THAT IS THAT A little old lady fell down in her home she lays on the floor she's all alone AND THAT IS THAT A young boy lays dying on the ground as he lays bleeding no one is around AND THAT IS THAT A wife is screaming so he hits her again they all can hear her how long has it been AND THAT IS THAT Every day at school the child has a bruise the teacher ignores him it is old news AND THAT IS THAT A little old man sleeps in the street he has frost bite on both of his feet AND THAT IS THAT Two tots are drowned in a bath Mom was angry they got her wrath AND THAT IS THAT Sorrow and hatred goes on every day we live our lives and look away AND THAT IS THAT CAROLANN CROWLEY 8/22/13
