Intro :
" Good God! Don't Jump!"
A boy sat on the ledge
And old man who had fa inted was revi ved
And e veryone agreed 'twould be a mi racle ind eed
If the boy survived
"Sa ve the life of my chi ld!"
Cried the desperate mot her
T he woman from the supermarket
R an to call the cops
"He must be high on so mething" so meone said
T hought it never made the New York Times
I n the Daily News the caption re ad
" Save the life of my ch ild!"
Cried the desperate mot her
A patrol car passing by
H alted to a stop
Said officer Mac Dougal in dism ay
"The f orce can't do a dec ent job
'Cause the ki ds got no respect
For the law to day" (and blah blah blah)
" Save the life of my ch ild!"
Cried the desperate mo ther
"Oh what's becoming of the chi ldren?"
Pe ople asking each other
W hen darkness fell excitement kissed the crowd
A nd it made them wild
In an atmosphere of fr eaky holida y
W hen the spotlight hit the boy
T he crowd began to cheer
H e flew away
" Oh my Grace I got no hi ding place"
" Oh my Grace I got no hi ding place"
