They Got You Boy
Who are you?
What's that you got there
Bottled up inside you?
Well, it's showin' through
If they got you, boy
Watch your face
I know your name
But I can't see your face
Has it been erased, too?
They got you, boy
Put your little world away
They get first chance at you
They're very good people, too
Anything they want to do
Do to you
Play their game
And who cares if your life
Will never be the same
You got to be insane, too
They got you, boy
Do your part
With no concern for happiness
Or what you feel in your heart
And I'll wait here for you
'Cause they're God-made, too
What's that you got there
Bottled up inside you?
Well, it's showin' through
If they got you, boy
Watch your face
I know your name
But I can't see your face
Has it been erased, too?
They got you, boy
Put your little world away
They get first chance at you
They're very good people, too
Anything they want to do
Do to you
Play their game
And who cares if your life
Will never be the same
You got to be insane, too
They got you, boy
Do your part
With no concern for happiness
Or what you feel in your heart
And I'll wait here for you
'Cause they're God-made, too
