Waste of What Your Kids Won’t Have Sufjan Stevens

[Intro]
Mad he was, inward
Break her barn, back door

[Verse 1]
When the water rushed and poured
Took the relatives she stored
So the Father, Ghost and Lord
Took the revelation stored

[Chorus]
It's a waste of money spent and given
It's a waste of what was, when forgiven
And your children burn their backs in bed
It's a waste of what your kids won't have

[Verse 2]
When the man took his gun
Put it on your youngest one
Took the curtains off the glass
Took the virgin for what she has

[Chorus]
It's a waste of money spent and given
It's a waste of what was, when forgiven
And your children burn their backs in bed
It's a waste of what your kids won't have
