Mother
Oh, mother, I've caught a nightmare disease
Brought me down, down, down, down
To my knees
But you're so hard
You're so hard to please
It's oh-so hard
So hard for me to see
Father
Your footsteps are so wide
I can't keep up
I cannot match your stride
Hey we're going the wrong way
I'll still follow
I'll follow you anyway
Brothers, sisters
We are sick, we are lost
Find a cure, get a map
Find your way back
Mom and Dad are not at home
They've gone and left us all alone
Let's paint the house black
Let's paint the house blue
Let's live in a purple bruise
Let's live in a purple bruise
