Leave me alone I am a child
Not a puppet or doll that you can hide
You look at me as if I can be the wife number 3 that left you
You want to touch so they would not know
But I’m not stupid, let me go
Let me play my games with friends
I am just a child so let me be free
I told my mother and aunty too and wait my uncle is coming to “moer” you
Stop grabbing me, you are hurting me
You are treating me like a second car wheel
Promising me sweets and R5 airtime
Dude get with the times that’s not how we roll
I know my rights as a child
You touch me again and I’ll put your sorry ass in jail
