Looking at me through the eye of a needle
is a scary thing to do I feel a mole hill lies in front of me to climb Is your primary purpose in life to scrutinize every move I make cos if it is I think your wasting precious time Well I know that I have got a job to do And I know, that my job is pleasing you, but I am what I am The way god made me I am what I am Don't try and change me Well I know I have my weaknessess as you point them out to me but our confont the spots of doubt as they arise Never born to be a leader but I'll take my role with pride cos a soldier with his honours lies inside Well I know that I have got a job to do As you say, that my job revolves around you I am what I am The way god made me I am what I am Don't try and change me Well I know that I have got a job to do But my life, wasn't made...for you I am what I am The way god made me I am what I am Don't try and change me I am what I am The way god made me |

Could somebody give me an answer
a solution to fill up my space As I take a peep out of the whole in my window I see a land that is filled with disgrace Now is it me, or did it used to seem better? Now I tear grows in every man's eye but the tear never once reached the surface And the tree which I climbed slowly dies Is that what its all about Hiding our feelings away Let the problem be that of another man I'm living my life in this way Far away from a troubled face Is that what its all about? A cure aint been found for my problem just yet behind the wrought iron gate, it is there, I bet but the key got a caught in a fishermans net With a dolphin the boy wanted for his pet Well I know I aint getting no younger pretty soon I guess I'll be extinct and all that I'll leave to remember is this problem I once paused to think Is that what its all about Hiding our feelings away Let the problem be that of another man I'm living my life in this way Far away from a troubled face Is that what its all about? Put it behind you Turn a blind eye Though you always know that its here Living your life through the line of defence I stand for myself, is that what its all about? |

Mother's girl has fallen in love
And dad has already told her he has heard enough He has taken sides of his wife And he tells is little petal she's too young for life So she goes to her room and shut the world outside Lays down to sink into her private mind, her other life inside She sings Secondhand rocking horse Let me ride high on you To a secondhand wonderland Secondhand lover boy Let me meet up with you In a secondhand wonderland Husband's drunk once again And he rages round the room sign of her real man She is numb from her pain But she's too afraid to leave she just hides it in so deep within Cries herself to sleep another lonely night, but in her dreams she sings Secondhand rocking horse Let me ride away with you To a secondhand wonderland Secondhand wedding day Let my virgin dance again In our secondhand wonderland This hour I feel insecure Got a bag of plastic worries from the grocery store Wild dogs stand prepared to savage at my flesh if I appear too scared So I walk the tightrope line without a safety net As the rope begins to fray I buy another set, From a secondhand rope store I sing Secondhand rocking horse Let me ride away with you To a secondhand wonderland Secondhand wooden horse Take me far away with you To a secondhand wonderland |
