Back To The Room Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Back to the room
Back to the space from whence I come
My blessed room
That's where I wish that I could run
I would be pure
I would feel safe
And I would swim and sleep all day
Back to the room
So I can escape from all the human ruin
[Chorus]
They want to try me
Call me a sissy
They try to rough me up
See if I'm man enough
I feel so ugly
I'll change my body
Just rearrange me
Get a lobotomy
[Break]
Oh mother, oh mother, oh mother
Oh mother, dear
[Verse 2]
Back to the room
Where I don't have to hate myself
My blessed room
Where I don't have to fake myself
I've got to get
Back to the room
Reverse my descent into hell
I can be pure
I can escape from all the savage DAMAGE!
[Chorus]
Indian killer
Indian giver
Call me a nigga
Where are my 40 acres
I'm not black enough
I ain't white enough
Burning white Christmas crosses
Break all the Santa Clauses
[Break]
Oh mother, oh mother, oh mother
Oh mother, dear
[Chorus]
They want to try me
Call me a sissy
They try to rough me up
See if I'm man enough
I feel so ugly
I'll change my body
Stain on my bedsheet
Suck my androgyny!
Indian killer
Indian giver
Call me a nigga
Where are my 40 acres
I'm not black enough
I'm not white enough
Burning white Christmas crosses
BREAK ALL THE SANTA CLAUSES
FUCK ALL THE SANTA CLAUSES!
[Break]
Oh mother, oh mother, oh mother
Oh mother, dear
