Trouble Child |
| Up in a sterilized room |
| Where they let you be lazy |
| Knowing your attitudes all wrong |
| And you got to change |
| And thats not easy |
| Dragon shining with all values known |
| Dazzling you-keeping you from your own |
| Where is the lion in you to defy him |
| When youre this weak |
| And this spacey… |
| So what are you going to do about it You cant live life and you cant leave it Advice and religion-you cant take it You cant seem to believe it The peacock is afraid to parade |
| Youre under the thumb of the maid |
| You really cant give love in this condition |
| Still you know how you need it They open and close you |
| Then they talk like they know you |
| They dont know you |
| Theyre friends and theyre foes too |
| Trouble child |
| Breaking like the waves at malibu |
| So why does it come as such a shock |
| To know you really have no one |
| Only a river of changing faces |
| Looking for an ocean |
| They trickle through your leaky plans |
| Another dream over the dam |
| And youre lying in some room |
| Feeling like your right to be human |
| Is going over too |
| Well some are going to knock you |
| And somell try to clock you |
| You know its really hard |
| To talk sense to you |
| Trouble child |
| Breaking like the waves at malibu |
