R.E.M. – The Wrong Child Lyrics  Share

From R.E.M.'s album: Green

(Berry/Buck/Mills/Stipe)



I^,ve watched the children come and go
A late long march into spring
I sit and watch those children
Jump in the tall grass
Leap the sprinkler
Walk in the ground
Bicycle clothespin spokes
The sound the smell of swingset hands

I will try to sing a happy song
I^,ll try and make a happy game to play
Come play with me I whispered to my new found friend
Tell me what it^,s like to go outside
I^,ve never been
Tell me what it^,s like to just go outside
I^,ve never been
And I never will

[ The Wrong Child lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/r/rem/wrong-child/ ]
I^,m not supposed to be like this
I^,m not supposed to be like this
But it^,s okay

Hey, those kids are looking at me
I told my friend myself
Those kids are looking at me
They^,re laughing and they^,re running over here
They^,re laughing and they^,re running over here
What do I do?
What can I do?
What should I do?
What do I say?
What can I say?

I said I^,m not supposed to be like this
Let^,s try to find a happy game to play
Let^,s try to find a happy game to play
I^,m not supposed to be like this
But it^,s okay, okay
