What was it like to be me as a boy
What can I say, what can I say
It was weird, it was dark
Didn’t know any other way
Never got a lot of loving
That wasn’t part of the deal
And all the pieces that were broke
Never had a chance to heal
It’s too much and not enough
Too and much and not enough
All that crazy, crazy stuff
Too much and not enough
What is like to be me as a man
What can I say, what can I say
It is sick, it is mad
That’s just my average day
I flit from thought to thought
Like a crazy butterfly
I do things I don’t mean to do
Why that is I don’t know why
