All day long, I felt like smashing my face Through a clear gla** window But instead, I went out And smashed up a phone booth around the corner I never had a chance to choose my own parents I never know why I should be stuck with mine Mommy's always trying not to eat And daddy's always smelling like he's pickled in booze I never had a chance to choose my own name I never know why I should be stuck with mine Mommy's always talking 'bout family pride And daddy's always hiding on the weekend, right All day long, I felt like smashing my neck Through a clear gla** window But instead, I went out And smashed up a station wagon around the corner I looked in the mirror and told myself I'm glad I still don't look like them at least Mommy's like a film star in a distorted mirror And daddy's like a guy who lost his stomach in the war I went to shake hands with the President in Miami I went to a rock show to see Mick Jagger You'd never believe it. It was the surprise of my life They had paint on their faces, just like my mommy Am I going crazy or is it just you, daddy? Am I going nuts or is it just you, mommy? Am I plain gone or is it just the world? Daddy, I'd rather have you dead than crazy Trying to talk to them is like eating TV dinner when you're angry Trying to get their love is like watching ice cream ad when you're hungry They gave me a watch that's guaranteed not to break But my mommy and daddy broke up last fall Am I going crazy or is it just you, daddy? Am I going nuts or is it just you, mommy? Am I plain gone or is it just the world? Mommy, I'd rather have you dead than crazy All day long, I felt like smashing my head In a clear gla** window But instead, I went out And smashed up the church around the corner
