Busted - The Person

If I’m transparent then i’m OK

I beg to differ, I’m as visible as anything

Like anything

You should keep those eyeballs

For yourself to use in honest mirrors

Those that are of the kind

To make you cry

Well they make you cry

Your mama told you it would never change

But then it did

You’ve been chasing ways to change in days

And wasting daze in keeping pace

And to put things in their place

I’m so amazed

Then you praise yourself for working hard

But what’s a great reward if there wouldn’t be any booze

Now, would you loose

Get the blues

What would you do?

Your mama told you it would never change

But then it did

Your daddy told you it would never change

But then it did

I was caught in the parking lot

They made me pee in a plastic cup

And I confessed, I just gave it up

It was as if I was a criminal

Now I’m dragging this ball and chain

Because of you Mary Jane

Well, let’s just blame it all on you

Your mama told you it would never change

But I guess it will

Your daddy told you it would never change

But I guess it will

They all told you it would never change

But they were wrong
