Family Tree Belle and Sebastian

I’ve been feeling down
I’ve been looking round the town
For somebody just like me
But the only ones I see
Are the dummies in the window
They spend their money on clothes
It saddens me to think
That the only ones I see are mannequins
Looking stupid, being used and being thin
And I don’t know why I hang around with them

The way they act, I’d rather be fat than be confused
The way they act, I’d rather be fat than be confused
Than be me in a cage
With a bottle of rage
And a family like the mafia

I’ve been feeling blue
And I don’t know what to do
And I never get a thrill
And they threw me out of school
Cause I swore at all the teachers
Because they never teach us
A thing I want to know
We do Chemistry, Biology and Maths
I want Poetry and Music and some laughs
And I don’t think it’s an awful lot to ask
