Since it happened I had nothin' to say  
It used to bother them but now it's okay 
Mother cleans his dreadful house every day  
Scrubbing at the stains that won't go away

They sent me away to the school in the park  
They said it would be good for me  
I still hear the other kids cry in the dark  

Chorus (as before)

Alone again in the lap of luxury 
Alone again in the lap of luxury 
Is there no escape from the lap of luxury
