Child of misfortune, victim of the rat race Waiting in a chair that now she calls her home She sits there all alone Wheel you to a section, feed you by a number Turn the other way and where's the grace of God? This God we call our own Such a dismal picture gazing out a window Thinking of your life and where the hell it's gone The world keeps moving on It's only love she wants, but we ain't got the time She's such a pretty girl Can't you hear her when she cries? What about Jane? Won't you look into her eyes She's much too young to die Why can't you see the pain What about Jane? Father of the symphony Will you play your song and comfort me? My only wish, don't want to die alone Child of the promised land Will you touch my soul? Will you take my hand? And after all is said and done, we'll go on It's only love she wants, but we ain't got the time She's such a pretty girl Can't you hear her when she cries? What about Jane? Won't you look into her eyes She's much too young to die Why can't you see the pain? What about Jane?
