Ode To My Family

The CRANBERRIES

Understand the things I say
don't turn away from me

'Cause I spent half my life out there
you wouldn't disagree

D'you see me, d'you see,
do you like me, do you like me standing there.

D'you notice, d'you know
do you see me, do you see me,
does anyone care

Unhappiness, where's when I was young,
and we didn't give a damn

'Cause we were raised, to see life as fun
and take it if we can

My mother, my mother she hold me,
did she hold me, when I was out there

My father, my father,
he liked me, oh he liked me,
does anyone care

Understand what I've become,
it wasn't my design.

And people everywhere think
something better than I am

But I miss you, I miss 'cause I liked it,
'cause I liked it, when I was out there

D'you know this, d'you know,
you did not find me, you did not find,
does anyone care.

Unhappiness, where's when I was young,
and we didn't give a damn.

'Cause we were raised, to see life as fun
and take it if we can.

My mother, my mother she hold me,
did she hold me, when I was out there.

My father, my father, he liked me
oh he liked me, does anyone care

Does anyone care
does anyone care
does anyone care

does anyone care
does anyone care
does anyone care

does anyone care
