Sorry Charlie - Sorry 
Hair full of cowlicks out of control 
his mother used Vitalis super super hold 
it's true kids can be so cruel 
loogies on his coat and charlie never knew 
he was a full-time mama's boy in second hand clothes 
i heard a little school girl punched him in the nose 
well that mary just ran away and charlie walked home alone another day 

I just can't believe it 
these wounds are never healing 
took him to a dark place 
i seen the look on his mother's face 
sorry charlie for all your pain and your misery 
but your mother loved you 
more than any other mother could do 
sorry charlie - sorry charlie 

One cold day on the street where i lived 
yard work and i was muddy like a pig 
i heard the laughter and turned for the scorn 
charlie with a girl, he up and threw a coin 
well i had compassion and i had enough 
so i taught that kid a lesson cuz he wasn't very tough 
in a trash can he let out a cry 
his mother took his side with fire in her eyes 

I just can't believe it 
these wounds are never healing 
took him to a dark place 
i seen the look on his mother's face 
sorry charlie for all your pain and your misery 
but your mother loved you 
more than any other mother could do 

sorry charlie - sorry 
sorry charlie for all your pain and your misery 
but your mother loved you 
more than any other mother could do
