Lyrics
Your mother finally took all of her money And put it where her mouth used to be Turning anybody's ear About her friends that disappeared And how she's sailing further out to sea Your father's spending all of his vacation Learning foreign names for all his fears While spirits he's detected From the data he's collected Turned out to be just ringing in his ears You look like one of them But you talk like one of us Everything they're tеlling you is wrong You look like one of them But you talk likе one of us Babe I think you know where you belong Your sister's always mortally offended At the mispronunciation of her name Telling all her newer clients That the "w" is silent Before she sends them out the way they came Your brother sends me all his latest poems About his secret dreams of learning how to dance He always adds a line for you Asking when you're coming thorugh So he can tell his supervisor six months in advance You look like one of them But you talk like one of us Everything they're telling you is wrong You look like one of them But you talk like one of us Babe I think you know where you belong Your old flame is still counting up his money In a secret lair he built behind the shelf Where he chants in repet**ion "Lead me not into temptation" I'm pretty sure he knows the way himself You look like one of them But you talk like one of us Everything they're telling you is wrong You look like one of them But you talk like one of us Babe I think you know where you belong
