lyrics

HOW COME ?
HOW COME IT`S ME THAT FEELS SO BAD
HOW COME IT`S ME THWARTS HURTING INSIDE
HOW COME IT`S ME THAT FEELS THIS WAY
HOW COME IT`S ME WITH WOUNDED PRIDE
HOW COME IT`S ME THAT DON`T FEEL GOOD
HOW COME IT`S ME THAT THINKS IVÈ FAILED
HOW COME IT`S ME THAT CAN`T BREAK FREE
HOW COME IT`S ME DAY AFTER DAY
HOW COME YOU THINK YOUR DOING ME A FAVOUR
STUCK IN WITH ME TELLY ON A SATURDAY NIGHT
NOTHING TO SHOW FOR A HARD DAYS LABOUR
LITTLE BIRD TELLS ME SOMETHING AIN`T RIGHT
HOW COME IT`S ME STANDING IN A BUS QUE
SPLASHED BY THE PUDDLES AS THE CARS WHIZZ BY
WAITING IN THE RAIN, OH! CHRIST IT`S FREEZING
I GIVE THEM HALF ME WAGES AND THEY GIVE ME LIES
HOW COME IT`S ME THAT FEELS A FOOL
HOW COME IT`S ME THAT WEARS THE FROWN
HOW COME IT`S ME THAT FEELS A FREAK
HOW COME IT`S ME THAT PLAYS THE CLOWN
WON`T YOU TELL ME HOW COME
SAW IT ALL IN A GLOSSY MAGAZINE
SAW THE BLOOD AND THE GUTS
HEARD THE CRIES AND THE SCREAMS
THOUGHT IT ALL SO BLOODY OBSCENE
LIKE BEING AWAKE
IN THE MIDDLE OF A BAD DREAM
MULTIMEDIA TOYS
THAT SATURATE THE MIND
IMAGES OF GROWN MEN
SLAUGHTERING A CHILD VIRTUAL REALITY
ARE TERMS THAT THEY USE
FOR GAMES OF DESTRUCTION,
MISSILES THAT CRUISE
MEN PLAYING GOD
WITH OTHER PEOPLE`S LIVES
GOING HOME MEEKLY
TO BE RULED BY THEIR WIVES
COMPUTER FOR A HEART,
CALCULATOR FOR A BRAIN
EAT MICROWAVE DINNERS
THAT TASTE ALL THE SAME
A HANDFUL OF PEOPLE
CONTROL THE FOOD CHAIN
WHILE MILLIONS OF INNOCENTS
ARE PRAYING FOR RAIN
HOW COME?
