Don't jump A boy sat on the ledge An old man who had fainted was revived (Bizarre) And everyone agreed it would be a miracle indeed If the boy survived "Save the life of my child" Cried the desperate mother The woman from the supermarket Ran to call the cops "He must be high on somethin' ", someone said Though it never made the New York Times In the daily news, the caption read "Save the life of my child" Cried the desperate mother [incomprehensible I want to talk to you A patrol car passin' by Halted to a stop Said officer Mac Dougal in dismay "The force can't do a decent job 'Cause the kids got no respect For the law today" and blah blah blah "Save the life of my child" Cried the desperate mother Oh, what's becomin' of the children?
