There But for the Grace of God Go I - Remix

Carlos and carmen vidal just had a child
 a lovely girl with a crooked smile
 now they gotta split 'cause the bronx ain't fit
 for a kid to grow up in
 let's find a place they say, somewhere far away
 with no blacks, no jews and no gays
 there but for the grace of god go i
 Poppy and the family left the dirty streets
 to find a quiet place overseas
 and year after year the kid has to hear
 the do's the don'ts and the dears
 and when she's ten years old she digs that rock 'n' roll
 but poppy bans it from home
 Baby, she turns out to be a natural freak
 popping pills and smoking weed
 and when she's sweet sixteen she packs her things and leaves
 with a man she met on the street
 carmen starts to bawl, bangs her head to the wall
 too much love is worse than none at all
