Brenda's Got A Baby
Brenda's got a baby Brenda's got a baby I hear Brenda's got a baby well, Brenda's barely got a brain A damn shame the girl can hardly spell her name That's not our problem, that's up to Brenda's family Well let me show you how it affects the whole community Now Brenda never really knew her moms and her dad was a junky Went in debt to his arms, it's sad 'cause I bet Brenda doesn't even know Just 'cause your in the ghetto doesn't mean you can't grow But oh, that's a thought, my own revelation Do whatever it takes to resist the temptation Brenda got herself a boyfriend, her boyfriend was her cousin Now let's watch the joy end she tried to hide her pregnancy From her family who really didn't care to see Or give a damn if she went out and had a church of kids As long as when the check came they got first dibs Now Brenda's belly is gettin' bigger but no one seems to notice Any change in her figure she's 12 years old and she's having a baby In love with the molester, who's s*xing her crazy and yet she thinks That he'll be with her forever and dreams of a world when the two of them We're together, whatever, he left her and she had the baby solo She had it on the bathroom floor and didn't know so She didn't know, what to throw away and what to keep She wrapped the baby up and threw him in the trash heep I guess she thought she'd get away wouldn't hear the cries She didn't realize how much the little baby had her eyes Now the baby's in the trash heep balling, momma can't help her But it hurts to hear her calling Brenda wants to run away Momma say, you makin' me lose pay, the social workers here everyday Now Brenda's gotta make her own way can't go to her family They won't let her stay, no money no babysitter, she couldn't keep a job She tried to sell crack, but end up getting robbed, so now what's next There ain't nothin'', left to sell, so she sees s*x as a way of leavin' hell It's payin' the rent, so she really can't complain, prostitute found slain And Brenda's her name, she's got a baby Don't you know she's got Don't you know she's got Don't you know she's got a baby Don't you know she's got Don't you know she's got Don't you know she's got a baby Don't you know she's got Don't you know she's got Don't you know she's got a baby Don't you know she's got Don't you know she's got Don't you know she's got a baby Don't you know she's got Don't you know she's got Don't you know she's got a baby Don't you know she's got Don't you know she's got Don't you know she's got a baby
