Tightrope 가사

I was still a baby, barely knee high When my pops packed his bags, and said no goodbye My mama died of heartache, so I tried to go hide But was kidnapped by carnies when, I accepted their ride Oh, you got me on a tightrope Stop the show and leave me alone Oh, you got me as an acrobat Let me go, applause ain't a home Now I said don't go and give me all your sympathy Save me from your charity I grew up on hunger and clowns, town after town And never escaped until, the state department came 'round oh, yeah they put me in a good school Gave me parents who smiled they said Now you can be a normal boy Well your normal don't fit (All right!) In fact it's quite goddamn crazy Oh, you got me on a fast track, of status quo, leave me alone Oh, you got me on a picket fence Let me go Your dreams ain't my own Leave your good intentions there There by the door Talk with me like like my mom did, did once before Now I don't need all the things that seem to matter to you All I want is an empty field, and a seed or two Oh, you got me on a tightrope Stop the show, and leave me alone Oh, you got me as an acrobat Let me go, applause ain't a home Now I said don't go and give me All your sympathy
