Son Little O Mother song lyrics

Oh mother, why do they treat me like I'm not a man?

I wonder, does anybody know just who I am?

Or can I love the world exactly how it is?

Or do I have to split?

Is there anybody rooting for the kids?

Oh mother, is this not the way you taught me to behave?

I won't just sit here and let them treat me like a slave.

Oh can I love the world and hate how it makes me feel?

Cause I don't want to kneel.

Is there anyone who's got my back for real?

Oh mother, I do not think I live here anymore.

No wonder.

Is it wrong I do not want to love it.

Can I love the world enough to give a spin?

Oh, am I giving in?

Do we burn the old one down and start again?

Oh start again.

Start again.

Oh, start again.
