Shook my head out of dreams,
reality's calling The early bird's been up all morning
But I've got no notion of moving from where I am
Well my legs won't move,
I feel disabled I'm on a shelf,
an article labeled
Waiting for someone to fetch me from lost and found
Had my ways with days of sunshine
Life came easy, it all fell in line
But then again,
I didn't realize When you're used to one thing,
it's hard
to accept another Like the woman who brought you up,
well,
she ain't your mother How do you cope
with a thing like that?
I'm down,
don't no wanna hear me calling I'm down,
don't no wanna see me falling
Thought
it was my sister who fell off the wall My
pseudo-brother Billy emigrated long ago
Someone went through pain to have me
Someone I should know
I'm down,
I'm down To
the folks who brought me up, I'm not ungrateful
Kept the secret from me,
they thought it was shameful It hurt me so to be the last one
to know Maybe someone's out there looking for me
Left on their own, couldn't afford to clothe me
I don't even know my real name
