Zounds - Did He Jump lyrics

Who was that on the window ledge? Did he jump or was he pushed? He left a note which no one read In desperate hand the note just said "Never turn my back on society Society turn is back on me Never tried once to drop out I just couldn't get in from the start." The children all played clever games The grown-ups gave them clever names Turned them all from very young On to the drug competition Feed them T.V. everyday Teach them just how they should play For the ones that start to stray Cut them off till they obey Our little friend was not the type To want to have to stand and fight Bully boys all could pick Upon the lonely little kid The grown ups all looked hard and long Said "He's got two feet he can stand on" We never like the sickly ones The boisterous ones are much more fun He found it hard to socialize Cause when he laughed or want he cried In the wrong place he'd be chastised An idiot to be despised Never learnt to play the game the way That your supposed to play Never learnt the things to say Or lock emotion safe away Who was that on the window ledge? Did he jump or was he pushed? He left a note which no one read In desperate hand the note just said: "Never turn my back on society Society turn is back on me All the world can not be wrong It must be me I don't belong." "All the world can not be wrong It must be me I don't belong" "All the world can not be wrong It must be me I don't belong" "All the world can not be wrong It must be me I don't belong" "All the world can not be wrong It must be me I don't belong" The unfree child is full of woe Into the unfree adult he will grow Have unfree children of is own On and on and so it goes Take your hands from off your genitals Eat those greens and grow up strong Don't piss yourself it's very naughty Stephen, Stephen don't you shine Don't speak now we are talking Not a word less you disgrace There's people listening Don't embarra** us And never let us catch you masturbate When I was a baby my mummy told me If I was a bad boy daddy would scold me When I was a baby my mummy lectured If I was a good boy I would be rewarded Mummy, daddy, what more would you expected In your eyes I'm not to be respected Take you on but I'm just one reflection Of the values that you hold and the way you see them My mummy's gone To a place where I can't go A place that's cloaked in thy mystery Of corporate identity Supermarkets and three pike suits My mummy's gone My mummy's gone When I was a little girl my mummy told me Had to make an effort to make myself pretty Got to get a husband, got to have a baby Got to be a credit to the rest of the family Mummy, daddy, what more would you expected In your eyes I'm not to be respected Take you on but I'm just one reflection Of the values that you hold and the way you see them My mummy's gone To a place where I can't go A place that's cloaked in thy mystery Of corporate identity Supermarkets and three pike suits My mummy's gone My mummy's gone Now that I'm older, I know that you scared me But I don't hold it against you, though it damage me sorley I know you're a victim just just like me You can feel the pressure just just like me Mummy, daddy, what more would you expected In your eyes I'm not to be respected Take you on but I'm just one reflection Of the values that you hold and the way you see them My mummy's gone To a place where I can't go A place that's cloaked in thy mystery Of corporate identity Supermarkets and three pike suits My mummy's gone My mummy's gone
