He was old enough to know
So when he asked if the impossible were true
She thought he wanted to
Tell it like it is, and so she did
He had experienced the innocence of being a kid
But she wanted
Readiness to be rewarded

Sweetheart, keep your curiosity
If people have a problem, they can deal with me
I don't mind if i do offend
Cuz i think it's understood
Kids can't know, must we condescend?
They don't need excuses to be good
Get off on good behaviour
For now (but someone tell me)
How (a culture could)
Allow (this to be and i)
Vow, they don't need excuses to be good.

Then the waterworks began
She took a moment to reflect on her decision
As tears obscured his vision
She gave his eyes a chance to dry
The chance she took was worth it
Cuz now his eyes were fully open
Exactly what she had been hoping

Sweetheart, thought i'd never think it, still
Nothing's gonna be if you just wish it will
I don't mind if i do offend
Cuz i think it's understood
The lights are on, must we all pretend?
That we need excuses to be good
But some remain in the dark
Even now (so someone tell me)
How (a culture could)
Allow (this to be and i)
Vow, you don't need excuses!
Now (but someone tell me)
How (the culture could)
Allow (this to be, take no)
Vow. it only confuses
You don't need excuses to be good.
