The Icicle Melts The Cranberries

[Verse 1]
When, when will the icicle melt? The icicle, icicle
And when, when will the picture show end? The picture show, picture show

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I should not have read the paper today
'Cause a child, child, child, child, he was taken away

[Chorus]
There's a place for the baby that died
And there's a time for the mother who cried
And she will hold him in her arms sometime
'Cause nine months is too long, too long, too long

[Post-Chorus]
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la

[Verse 2]
How, how could you hurt a child? How could you hurt a child?
Now does this make you satisfied, satisfied, satisfied?

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I don't know what's happening to people today
When a child, child, child, child, he was taken away, taken away
