| Ed Sheeran – Little Lady Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
The song, at least I believe, tells the story of a young girl who was a prostitute and a heroin addict as well. As far as I've heard, it happens quite a lot to young women. The young girl is 13, as it says in the line "all because she got a card on her 13th birthday". The girl got sent to her uncle, the pimp, by her mother who sent her to study, which says that she wasn't from England. Whittington is a hospital in London, and the clinic she was booked for was probably a sexual health clinic to check for STDs, to make sure her pimp's customers wouldn't want their money back. A nurse at Whittington obviously was suspicious of her injuries and called the police, who talked to her. She thought no one could help her, so she just listened and heard the reasons why she needed to bring her uncle to justice. When she went home, her uncle found her and threatened her to tell him where she had been, carrying a large knife. Her handbag dropped, and he saw the card that the policeman had given her, which angered him. The uncle brutally murdered his niece, "all because she got a card on her 13th birthday". It is very sad, and it makes me realize how much other people are suffering outside my own life. |
