[Intro]
G D Am C
[Verse 1]
G D
Jesse doesn't dream, she doesn't care
Am C
She wakes up and does her hair
G D
And now she's going door to door
Am C
I wonder what she's looking for
G D
Scotty beam me up to where you are
Am C
Sometimes I wonder if you've gone too far
G D
And everybody says you lost your mind
Am C
Did you really leave the past behind?
[Chorus]
G D Am C
I'm a kid in Franklin Park, I fear I'm floating Noah's Ark
G D Am C
I Love my friends with all my heart and they don't care
G D Am C
Lord I'm bringing them to you from this place they call the zoo
G D Am C
I'm a kid in Franklin Park and life's not fair
[Verse 2]
G D
Missy liked to dance out in the rain
Am C
Anything to wash away her pain
G D
'Cause when you've never known your Daddy's love
Am C C
You can never get enough
[Chorus]
G D Am C
I'm a kid in Franklin Park, I fear I'm floating Noah's Ark
G D Am C
I Love my friends with all my heart and they don't care
G D Am C
Lord I'm bringing them to you from this place they call the zoo
G D Am C
I'm a kid in Franklin Park and life's not fair
[Bridge]
Am
I'm like them, we're all the same,
C
But they don't know you know their names
Am
And we're the reason that you came,
C D
With pure love in your veins
Am
For those of us across the tracks,
C
Don't let us slip between the cracks
[Chorus]
G D Am C
I'm a kid in Franklin Park, I fear I'm floating Noah's Ark
G D Am C
I Love my friends with all my heart and they don't care
G D Am C
Lord I'm bringing them to you from this place they call the zoo
G D Am C
I'm a kid in Franklin Park and life's not fair
[Outro]
G D Am
