I will understand
In God's whole plan
And what He's done to me
Oh, but maybe
Someday I will breathe
And I'll finally see
I'll see it all in my baby”

“Oh, God," I said.
"No, it's Dexter," he replied, offering me his hand, which I ignored.
He glanced behind him, then back at me. "I'll see you soon," he said, and grinned at
me.
"Like hell," I replied”

“You call me Mr. Pitiful;
Baby that's my name now, oh.
They call me Mr. Pitiful;
That's how I got my fame.
But people just don`t understand, now

Ooh, they call me Mr. Pitiful;
Cause I lost someone just like you, now.”

“Baby, I love you
But if you wanna leave, take good care
I hope you make a lot of nice friends out there
But just remember there's a lot of bad and beware Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world

Oh, baby, baby, it's a wild world
I'll always remember you like a child”
