When 
When will the icicle melt, 
And when 
When will the picture show end 
I should not have read the paper today 
Cause a child, child he was taken away 
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 
How could you hurt a child 
Now Does this make you satisfied 
I don't know what's 
happening to people today 
When a child, he was taken away 
There's a place for the baby that died 
There's a time for the mother that cried 
And she will hold him in 
her arms sometime 
Cause nine months is too long 
There's a place for the baby that died 
And there's a time for the mother who cried 
And you will hold him in 
Yours arms sometime 
Cause nine months is too long
