My mother and my father and my television School my music and my inner visions My mind is a nation with all of these divisions Show me the way to go home My friends on the bottom my friends on the top Some of my friends don't know when to stop Sometimes one cheers while another heart drops But they're all trying to find a way home My town my state and my whole country My family's race their religion and money Sometimes I laugh at things I don't find funny And I want to find a way to go home
