Black and Blue

Come see your brother in the crazy house
Come down and see just what it's all about

He's living in a world
That's got no light
Sleeps all day and cries all night
Even when he dreams, he sheds his tears
Prays he doesn't stay a million years

Come see you brother in the loony bin
Come down to see what kind of shape he's in

Hasn't got a place
To call his own
Hasn't got a soul that he can phone
Looking all around for a friendly face
Compassion sure is lacking in this place

Doesn't wanna fight and he doesn't wanna fuss
They've got him doped up so that's a plus
He's looking like everything is fine
While his heart is beating double time

Come see your brother in this nutty place
Come see if you can recognize his face

He's trying to survive
And perhaps he will
He's been there for a while and stranger still
He claims there's no relationship to you

So, it's no wonder that he's black and blue
It's no wonder that he's black and blue
It's no wonder that he's black and blue
It's no wonder that he's black and blue
It's no wonder that he's black and blue
It's no wonder that he's black and blue
