[Verse 1]
A hammer of purple shit
Bashes down on your fantasy
Fantasy piled upon the fantasy
That maybe now you are free

[Chorus]
Little boy, can I ever love you enough?
Little boy, can I face you truly enough?
Can I ever pat your head gently enough?
Can I ever smile at you honestly enough?
Can I keep dread far from your heart enough?

[Post-Chorus]
No, I cannot

[Verse 2]
When I am near you
Everything, everything, everything
Is worth its cost
Your dad told me he has no feelings
Now I understand

[Chorus]
Little boy, can I ever love you enough?
Little boy, can I face you truly enough?
Can I ever pat your head gently enough?
Can I ever smile at you honestly enough?
Can I keep dread far from your heart enough?
