St. Lenox - People From Other Cultures lyrics

[Verse 1] My mother's on the phone She doesn't understand Why I'm always fearful of the dangers in the world I said it's different cultures She's from a different world I said it's a different generation [Chorus] You know when she was just a child They had to hide in caves and hush The babies so the enemies could not find them? I can't imagine what it's like to be a parent then She's accustomed to the danger [Verse 2] My mother's on the phone She doesn't understand Why her son isn't settled down and happy I said it's different cultures She's from a different world I said it's a different generation [Chorus] You know when she was just a child They told the lepers that the blood of Kids could cure them of their situation? I can't imagine what it's like to be a kid back then She knows I'm a lucky one [Verse 3] My mother's on the phone She doesn't understand Why I'm not a braver person in the face of danger I said it's different cultures She's from a different universe I said it's a different generation [Chorus] You know when she was just a young one She saw the U.N. soldiers firing back On battlecruisers in the distance? It makes you feel a little stupid talking back to her She still recalls it all
