Way Too Much Power
Way
too
much
power
stacked
up
on
the
shelf,
Almost
as
much
power
as
the
Lord
God
himself,
No
room
for
human
error
no
room
for
mistake,
With
a
long
list
of
families
and
hearts
they
did
break,
Whose
was
the
decision?
Who
deemed
it
correct?
It's
a
fine
line
between
nurture
and
neglect,
Misinterpretation
is
just
no
excuse,
Is
it
child
protection
or
maybe
child
abuse?
As
you
gather
the
details
each
in
its
right
place,
Have
you
got
all
the
facts
right
to
build
up
ya
case?
Was
it
mere
chastizing
or
harsh
push
'n'
shove?
As
you
remove
these
kids
from
the
families
they
love,
And
the
homes
that
get
broken
are
tossed
on
the
pile,
As
the
kid
with
no
mummy
forgets
how
to
smile,
As
the
powers
that
be
sit
deciding
your
fate,
There
are
no
words
of
wisdom
that
can
compensate,
So
where
lies
the
answer
to
whom
love
deprives?
Given
way
too
much
power
to
play
God
with
kids
lives.
