Ask your mommy and daddy, "What happened to the Indian? How come they're all living in places With too much snow or too much sand?" Tell your mommy, "I got a funny feeling deep inside of me" Ask your daddy, "Is it really as bad as people make it seem?" Wa ta tick it ta too too Ask your mommy why everybody swallows all those little pills Ask your daddy why that soldier doesn't care who he kills After they've put you to sleep and tucked you safely down in your bed Whisper, "Mommy and Daddy would you rather that I learned it from my friends, instead? Do you think I'm to young to know, to see, to feel, or hear My questions need an answer or a vacuum will appear" Don't be surprised if they turn and walk away And tell your mommy and daddy that you love them anyway That you love them anyway Give them a kiss Love will set you free Kings of EMI Mommy and Daddy (alt.) Ask your mommy and daddy, "What happened to the Indian?" Ask your mommy and daddy to tell you where you really came from Then mommy and daddy will probably turn and quickly walk away Then ask your mommy and daddy who really killed J.F.K Wa ta tick it ta too too... Ask your mommy if she really gets off on all her - all her pills Ask your Daddy, "Why doesn't that soldier care who he kills?" After they've put you to sleep and tucked you safely down in your bed Whisper Mommy and Daddy, "Would it matter if the bullet went through my head? If it was my blood spilling on the kitchen floor If it was my blood, mommy, would you care a little more?" Don't be surprised when they turn and start to cry And tell your Mommy and Daddy, tell your mommy and daddy Scream it to your mommy and daddy They're living in a lie, a lie, a lie It's all a lie, a lie, a lie A lie, a lie...
