I was born in a lighthouse, my mother was the sea
I crawled to school each morning when it occurred to me
G D F# Bm
that life's just a mood ring we're not allowed to see
E - F# -
and this is what it said to me:
Chorus:
Bm A Bm F#m
My room's comfortably small with rubber lining the walls
Bm E A -
and there's someone always calling my name
Bm A Bm F#m
he calls when I'm alone and he calls when I'm not home
D - F# -
and he calls when I'm stuck out in the rain
|: Bm - / A :|
I'm insane

Now listen all you swingers, don't you try to tag along
I know monkey see but monkey's dead, for you it would be wrong
put a dime in my jukebox - you'll only hear this song
and it won't be fun for long
(Chorus)
-E.M.
