You say you've never seen the light before   does anyone believe you   Don't let them hear you say it anymore   Nothing's really safe around here      We are an imitation of the crown   we never turn the pages   They cannot let your spirit touch the ground   Nothing's gonna change around here      Crack in the ceiling   hole in the wall   they bend you over   but you won't crawl away      Two in the bushes   one in the hand   They'd make you over   but they can't understand you   You're always gonna be the wild one      Pretend that all you really feel is pain   just hide behind some sorrow   How sad   But you'd do it all again   (I guess that) Nobody changes 'round here      Cat in the cradle   Man in the moon   They'd make you over   but it's too soon to know      Smoke in the kitchen   fire in the hall   The train is coming    and you can hear it coming   You're always gonna be the wild one      Crack in the ceiling   hole in the wall   they bend you over   but you won't crawl away      Two in the bushes   one in the hand   They'd make you over   but they can't understand you   You're always gonna be the wild one
