Mama told Jonas

Jonas got numb

He should have kept his eyes

On that sideboard when he cracked my skull

It was an accident

But it took fifteen stitches to remedy

My lungs been watered

My heart's been rot

I killed my youth

It was a savaged death

It took fifteen years to revive me

It's got to hurt

And if it ain't hurting it ain't

Worth to sing about

And it's more that's forgotten

Then ever been told

And I know, yes I know

Whatever been done to you

It could have been done to me

And I know, yes I know

Whatever been done to you

It could have been done to me

If only politicians could be as passionate

About their work as my artist friends are

It would make some wonderful changes to these times

But money don't care for people

And people find it hard to make a difference

When they're on their own

And I know, yes I know

Whatever been done to me

It could have been done to you

And I know, yes I know

Whatever been done to me

It could have been done to you

And I know, yes I know

Whatever been done to me

It could have been done to you
