Charity dares me to play another song She says what's wrong are you afraid I say why would i be afraid And i look at her and wonder where she learned to talk that way Charity knows Charity already understands She has no real name and probably never will She may be right She may be right Charity knows where she stands She says give me fifty cents Throws an ice cube at a store-front window Moves a little closer Whispers in my ear do think i'll be a princess someday Charity knows Charity already understands She has no real name and probably never will She may be right She may be right Charity knows where she stands She punches my guitar Laughs at the sound Looks around but nobody notices Stares me dead straight Old soul young eyes Can you guess my real name She says can you guess my real name I want to take you home with me like a bu*terfly I'll be your cocoon I'll be your father Tuck you in sing you a lullaby Charity knows Charity already understands She has no real name and probably never will She may be right She may be right Charity knows where she stands Charity knows
