Familiar

Familiar
Why is this so familiar?
Familiar
Like something I used to know (used to know)
Familiar
Staring up at the ceiling
Familiar
I swear that I know this feeling

Where everybody wants me to be mom (wants me to be gone, wants me to be gone)
And everything I do, I do it wrong (I do it, do it wrong)
I sway them with a joke or with a song (or with a song)
And maybe that'll help us get along

Familiar
Why is this so familiar? (This is so familiar)
Familiar
Like something I used to do (something I used to do)
Familiar
She used to throw a tantrum
Insisting, that "hey I'm a diamond too!" (hey I'm a diamond too)

I bet she drove them crazy all the time (crazy all the time)
They love her but they're leaving her behind (leaving her behind)
With more important places they should be (places they should be)
Than hanging out with someone just like me (someone just like me, someone just like me)

Familiar
That's why it's so familiar (that's why it is so familiar)
Familiar
Like someone I used to be (someone you used to be)
Familiar
But this time I've had some practice (this time you've, this time you've had some practice)
At helping a struggling family (a struggling family)

Oh I'll get them all together in one place (in one place)
And once we're all together face to face (together face to face)
I'll show them all the errors of their ways (the error of their ways)
And stop their spread of terror across space!
