I hear Brenda's got a baby But, Brenda's barely got a brain A damn shame The girl can hardly spell her name (That's not our problem, that's up to Brenda's family) Well, let me show you how it affects our whole communityNow Brenda never really knew her moms And her dad was a junkie, puttin' death into his arms It's sad, 'cause I bet Brenda doesn't even know Just 'cause you're in the ghetto doesn't mean you can't grow But oh, that's a thought, my own revelation Do whatever it takes ta resist the temptation Brenda got herself a boyfriend Her boyfriend was her cousin, now lets watch the joy endShe tried to hide her pregnancy, from her family Who didn't really care to see, or give a damn if she Went out and had a church of kids As long as when the check came they got first dibs Now Brenda's belly's gettin' bigger But no one seems to notice any change in her figure She's 12 years old and she's having a baby In love with the molester, who's sexin' her crazyAnd yet and also thinks that he'll be with her forever And dreams of a world with the two of them are together Whatever He left her and she had the baby solo, she had it on the bathroom floor And didn't know so, she didn't know what to throw away and what to keep She wrapped the baby up and threw him in the trash heap I guess she thought she'd get away, wouldn't hear the cries She didn't realize, how much the little baby had her eyesNow the baby's in the trash heap, balling Momma can't help her, but it hurts to hear her calling Brenda wants to run away Momma say, "You makin' me lose pay, and social workers here everyday" Now Brenda's gotta make her own way Can't go to her family, they won't let her stay No money, no babysitter, she couldn't keep a job She tried to sell crack, but end up getting robbedSo now what's next, there ain't nothin' left to sell So she sees sex as a way of leavin' hell It's payin' the rent, so she really can't complain Prostitute, found slain, and Brenda's her name, she's got a baby
