ZOUNDS - Did He Jump/Unfree Child/Mommy's Gone lyrics
rate me
Who was that on the window ledge? <br>
Did he jump or was he pushed? <br>
He left a note which no one read <br>
In desperate hand the note just said: <br>
"Never turn my back on society <br>
Society turn is back on me. <br>
Never tried once to drop out, <br>
I just couldn't get in from the start."<br>
<br>
The children all played clever games <br>
The grown-ups gave them clever names <br>
Turned them all from very young <br>
On to the drug competition <br>
Feed them T.V. everyday <br>
Teach them just how they should play <br>
For the ones that start to stray <br>
Cut them off till they obey<br>
<br>
Our little friend was not the type <br>
To want to have to stand and fight <br>
Bully boys all could pick <br>
Upon the lonely little kid <br>
The grown ups all looked hard and long <br>
Said "He's got two feet he can stand on" <br>
We never like the sickly ones <br>
The boisterous ones are much more fun<br>
<br>
He found it hard to socialize <br>
Cause when he laughed or want he cried <br>
In the wrong place he'd be chastised <br>
An idiot to be despised <br>
Never learnt to play the game the way <br>
That your supposed to play <br>
Never learnt the things to say <br>
Or lock emotion safe away<br>
<br>
Who was that on the window ledge? <br>
Did he jump or was he pushed? <br>
He left a note which no one read <br>
In desperate hand the note just said: <br>
"Never turn my back on society <br>
Society turn is back on me. <br>
All the world can not be wrong <br>
It must be me I don't belong." <br>
"All the world can not be wrong <br>
It must be me I don't belong" <br>
"All the world can not be wrong <br>
It must be me I don't belong" <br>
"All the world can not be wrong <br>
It must be me I don't belong" <br>
"All the world can not be wrong <br>
It must be me I don't belong" <br>

The unfree child is full of woe <br>
Into the unfree adult he will grow <br>
Have unfree children of is own <br>
On and on and so it goes<br>
<br>
Take your hands from off your genitals <br>
Eat those greens and grow up strong <br>
Don't piss yourself it's very naughty <br>
Stephen, Stephen don't you shine <br>
Don't speak now we are talking <br>
Not a word less you disgrace <br>
There's people listening <br>
Don't embarrass us <br>
And never let us catch you masturbate <br>
<br>

When I was a baby my mummy told me <br>
If I was a bad boy daddy would scold me <br>
When I was a baby my mummy lectured <br>
If I was a good boy I would be rewarded<br>
<br>
Mummy, daddy, what more would you expected<br>
In your eyes I'm not to be respected<br>
Take you on but I'm just one reflection<br>
Of the values that you hold and the way you see them<br>
<br>
My mummy's gone <br>
To a place where I can't go <br>
A place that's cloaked in thy mystery <br>
Of corporate identity <br>
Supermarkets and three pike suits <br>
My mummy's gone <br>
My mummy's gone<br>
<br>
When I was a little girl my mummy told me <br>
Had to make an effort to make myself pretty <br>
Got to get a husband, got to have a baby <br>
Got to be a credit to the rest of the family<br>
<br>
Mummy, daddy, what more would you expected<br>
In your eyes I'm not to be respected<br>
Take you on but I'm just one reflection<br>
Of the values that you hold and the way you see them<br>
<br>
My mummy's gone <br>
To a place where I can't go <br>
A place that's cloaked in thy mystery <br>
Of corporate identity <br>
Supermarkets and three pike suits <br>
My mummy's gone <br>
My mummy's gone<br>
<br>
Now that I'm older, I know that you scared me <br>
But I don't hold it against you, though it damage me sorley <br>
I know you're a victim just just like me <br>
You can feel the pressure just just like me<br>
<br>
Mummy, daddy, what more would you expected<br>
In your eyes I'm not to be respected<br>
Take you on but I'm just one reflection<br>
Of the values that you hold and the way you see them<br>
<br>
My mummy's gone <br>
To a place where I can't go <br>
A place that's cloaked in thy mystery <br>
Of corporate identity <br>
Supermarkets and three pike suits <br>
My mummy's gone <br>
My mummy's gone<br>
