Look what they've done to my song, Ma
Look what they've done to my song
Well it's the only thing that I could do half right
And it's turning out all wrong, ma
Look what they've done to my song.
Look what they've done to my brain, Ma
Look what they've done to my brain
Yeah they picked it like a chicken bone
And I think I'm half insane, Ma
Look what they've done to my brain.
I wish I could find a good book to live in
Wish I could find a good book
Cause if I could find a real good book
I'd never have to come out and look at
Look what they've done to my song.
Na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na
And if people are buying tears
I’ll be rich some day, Ma
Look what they've done to my brain.
But maybe it'll all be all right Ma,
Maybe it'll all be OK
Cause if the people are buying tears
I'll be rich someday, Ma
Look what they've done to my song.
Look what they've done to my song, Ma
Look what they've done to my song
Yeah they tied it up in a plastic bag
and they turned it upside down
Look what they've done to my song. Ma
Look what they've done to my song.
