What did I do?
What did I do?
Mama, Papa’s gone
Ran away, just today
And they’re taking me back
To the room with white walls
Impossible to move
With the coat they gave me
Can’t hurt myself
The walls are soft
But I’m still in pain
I don’t say a word
But I sing that song we sang
Rolla Polla, My sweet child
Daddy’s here Mummy’s here
We won’t let you go
Rolla Polla never will you be hurt
You will never feel pain
We won’t let you
Rolla Polla…Rolla polla
You said Daddy was coming home
You said he was round the corner
Buying a loaf of bread
You said the queue must be long
He was tired and must be staying away alone
Not at home
My arms are strapped back
I’m given pills everyday
Force-fed everyday
Everyday I sing that song we used to sing
Rolla Polla, My sweet child
Daddy’s here Mummy’s here
We won’t let you go
Rolla Polla never will you be hurt
You will never feel pain
We won’t let you
Rolla Polla…Rolla polla
He never came home
I left home
I moved right here
Now a girl visits me
Holds my hand doesn’t say a word
But always cries
And I don’t know why?
But I sang her a song that we used to sing
Rolla Polla, My sweet child
Daddy’s here Mummy’s here
We won’t let you go
Rolla Polla never will you be hurt
You will never feel pain
We won’t let you
Rolla Polla…Rolla polla
She said “goodbye I’ll see you later”
Just like Daddy did
But she didn’t come back
Just like Daddy did
I didn’t know her
I didn’t know Daddy
But still she left me
Just like Daddy
And now all I do is sit here and sing
Rolla Polla, My sweet child
Daddy’s here Mummy’s here
We won’t let you go
Rolla Polla never will you be hurt
You will never feel pain
We won’t let you
Rolla Polla…Rolla polla
Sit here and sing
Rolla polla
Rolla polla
Rolla
Polla

| Could this have went on any longer for God sakes..It would not freaking end..Give the reader a breath here every so often..Your not keeping a decent pace in the write..Your words are all over the place..I get the drift but Jesus shorter stanza's and try making some sense. |

| thank you for your positive influence...some poems I feel need to be the way mine is...I understand what you mean but when I was writing this the words just flowed and wouldn't stop until I finished |

Wow. I liked that. It made me cry. Nice job with the first stanza: "Can’t hurt myself...
but I'm still in pain" |

| Well you might designate the repeating verse as the "chorus" and then put [chorus] inbetween the other stanzas. That'd probably help. It was an interesting story though. Cheers! |
