Lyrics
She's two years old and she's heard every word that we've said Even the bit about you Finding someone new Our baby's crying at the top of the stairs as mummy screams at daddy to go Oh no we got trouble Yeah we got trouble So much trouble Down below Now she's in her teens Each end of the candle is burning Like there's no tomorrow Every night after school On the backseat of his car She's been learning the mechanics of sorrow as another unwanted child starts to grow We got trouble Yeah we got trouble So much trouble Down below When everything seems to go wrong Prayers go unanswered for too long Hang in there though you feel that you've had enough Someone else could be having trouble Up there in heaven above Before we've started don't you know we got trouble Yeah we got trouble So much trouble A whole lot of trouble Down below way down below
