Well-to-do white boy what's the matter Did all you parents' dreams just shatter Or might yours come true And what about the children you'll have Will they be sad too You're so corroded never had a shower The pain will wash off in an hour Then I will let you go And your shape will be restored Why don't you ever comfort me Late afternoons, rhododendron tea Why don't you ever comfort me You me gazebo lie blue blazer backyard fly Why don't you ever comfort me Once was lost now I'm sound
Should have known I would have drowned Peace in an hour Welcome well no one is home Your grandparents aren't home You used to dream of me now all you do is watch TV You can't move you're just there The sun can bleach your hair But I won't leave you trapped and alone So don't look at me that way Because I'm the one that brought you home . . . Big time let down . . . Once filled with wonder now I'm over and under And I can see the roots from here my dear Stay, stray
