Oingo Boingo - Helpless lyrics

rate me

Countless long nights While I stare at the wall I ask myself over again... How did I end up In this little hell? How - did it ever begin? Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpess Helpless to turn back the clock That ticks on With its cruel shiny face It laughs while it watches My every disgrace - I was Born a sap - all the Nurses laughed when they Saw me the first time They giggled and they said "This poor little monster'd be Better off dead." Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpess Helplessly trapped in a body I'm sure - Should have never been mine. I bet that my real one's Doing just fine - and I Don't belong here, I Don't belong here - I Should be quite rich With a big shiny car A house with twelve rooms I deserve to go far. Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpess Helplessly falling in love But does love Really last through the night? To love - To honor - To kick and to bite! and I Don't belong here, I Don't belong here It's all a mistake I was destined for greatness A leader, a prophet - They're just too blind to notice. Where did this whole silly story begin? It seems that my mind has gone - Blank. I think that I've messed up a chapter or two. Perhaps it is best if I'm frank! Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpess - Helplessly lost like that poor chap who came For an innocent dance. He left with his brain smeared All over his pants! cause he Didn't belong here, he Didn't belong here He never should've left That warm cage in a zoo! His face was so ugly What else could I do? Can you - really blame me, I Had to smash it. He left me no choice, he was just like the others. I just had to kill him. With my poor, dear, old Mother. Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpess Helplessly fucked in the ass By a legion of forty ex-cons That's what it feels like When you walk all over me. Don't belong here, I Don't belong here Your eyes burn right through me. They fill me with fear. I could've been at home Watching football, and drinking beer. Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpess, so Helpless.
