Even Angels Cry

Every day a child is born
No one knows what he’s here for
Was he born a sinner
So fix him now while you still can
Turn that boy into a man
He’s gotta be a winner
Everyone’s in on the deal
There’s only certain things
That a boy can feel
And we lie, lie, lie, lie
Lie, lie, lie all the time
All the time
And we try, try, try
To get by, by, by
But all the while
Behind all the smiles
Even angels cry
Even angels cry
Every day a child is born
No one knows what she’s here for
Was she born a barbie?
So fix her hair and stand her tall
Or else she’ll be invisible
Forget she has a heartbeat
Everyone knows that’s true
There’s only certain things
That a girl can do
And we lie, lie, lie, lie
Lie, lie, lie all the time
All the time
And we try, try, try
To get by, by, by
But all the while
Behind all the smiles
Even angels cry
Even angels cry
Even angels cry
Even angels cry
(Cry, cry)
Hey you over there
Disappearing like a ghost
There’s so much in your soul
That the world will never know
If we lie, lie, lie, lie
Lie, lie, lie all the time
All the time
And we try, try, try
To get by, by, by
But all the while
Behind all the smiles
Even angels cry
Even angels cry
Even angels cry
Even angels cry
