Mama Im Strange - Lyrics by Collective Soul


Lyrics
What's this little lie 
They keep on telling me
It's just another high
They keep on selling me
I was only five
They fed me so much jive

They said just have a ball Just be a Barbie doll
They churned and burned me out
Until they turned me out
Over and over again


Mama I'm strange
The thoughts and the wants are the locks

On the back of my brain
I'm descending pretending I'm blending
I'm going insane
And they want me to change
Mama I'm strange

I'm on a shaky wall
I'm tripping down the hall

And all the king's men can't

Can't sew me up again
I've got a leaky head
Don't know the full extent
I'm drowning in my bed
I'm just an accident
They chewed and blew me out

Until they threw me out

Over and over again

If I could tranquilize
I might just vaporize
They couldn't supervise

They couldn't criticize
I have no evidence
I have no reverence
It makes no difference
I have no innocence


Help me mama help me now
