Mama they won't take me seriously

They show me the door but they hold back the key

I ask myself what is wrong with me

Do they see something I don't see

I know you told me, not to take from strangers

But I am preoccupied with the dangers

and respect among thieves

There's a piracy on the high seas

And I am held for trason here

with no reasons clear, that I know



The old house by the late

A split was so apparent

An imminent break

How could I've known

I was just a kid

I was only doin'

Just what I was told

And I know you told me, not to take from strangers

But I am preoccupied with the dangers

and respect among thieves

There's a piracy on the high seas

And I am held for treason here

With no reasons clear, that I know



What do I know? The seeds don't grow

Through my broken home

What do I know?

I don't want to grow old alone

What do I know?



Mama they won't take me seriously

They show me the door

but they hold back the key
