Mama sold me

For candy,

And I was ruined from the start.
CHORUS:
E C
Why do you have to sell me to those mean old men?

They cut me up in places I don't even understand,

It's normalcy to me, but how will my friends understand?

Sleepin' with a million men.

Sees the a light peekin' through the end of the hallway,

But I'm flyin'

Out of this hell hole.
