 His  hair  had  turned from black  into bright  white
He said that it was from when

 Then there  was this girl  who
 
   (He played

 Wouldn't  go to change with the girls in the change room
 But  when  they finally  made her
 They  saw  birthmarks  all over  her body
 She  couldn't quite explain  it
 
 
 They'd  always just been there
 Both  girl and boy  were  glad
 One  kid had it worse  than  that
 'Cause then  there was  a boy whose
 
   (Again, he plays
 Parents  made him come right home directly after school
 And  when  they went to  their church
 They  shook  and  lurched all over  the church  floor
 He  couldn't quite explain  it
 
 
 They'd  always just gone there
 Outro is the same progression as the bridge
 Enjoy.
