A Song For Mi Hijo Futuro
hello, pretty baby,
please forgive us for the mess.
will you clean it if you can?
we’ve been cleaning, but it’s–
today, pretty baby
i found treasures in our tongues.
could you speak it if you tried?
if i speak it, i might–
thank you, pretty baby
for your name that sounds like mine.
how it’s different, I don’t mind
we will learn it, give us–
grow up, pretty baby
but dont worry about size
you’ll go hungry all the time
i stopped eating, now i’m–
return, pretty baby
to this neighborhood of ours
where you’d find it i don’t know
you might see it, should you–
sun sets, pretty baby
but you’ll always hold the light
won’t you save us from the dark?
won’t you save us–
won’t you?
