Helpless Lyrics by Oingo Boingo

Helpless Lyrics

    Countless long nights
    While i stare at the wall
    I ask myself over again...

    How did i end up
    In this little hell?
    How - did it ever begin?

    Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpess

    Helpless to turn back the clock
    That ticks on
    With its cruel shiny face
    It laughs while it watches
    My every disgrace - i was
    Born a sap - all the
    Nurses laughed when they
    Saw me the first time
    They giggled and they said
    "this poor little monster'd be
    Better off dead."

    Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpess

    Helplessly trapped in a body
    I'm sure -
    Should have never been mine.
    I bet that my real one's
    Doing just fine - and i
    Don't belong here, i
    Don't belong here - i
    Should be quite rich
    With a big shiny car
    A house with twelve rooms
    I deserve to go far.

    Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpess

    Helplessly falling in love
    But does love
    Really last through the night?
    To love - to honor -
    To kick and to bite! and i
    Don't belong here, i
    Don't belong here
    It's all a mistake
    I was destined for greatness
    A leader, a prophet -
    They're just too blind to notice.

    Where did this whole silly story begin?
    It seems that my mind has gone -
    Blank.
    I think that i've messed up a chapter or two.
    Perhaps it is best if i'm frank!

    Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpess -

    Helplessly lost like that
    Poor chap who came
    For an innocent dance.
    He left with his brain smeared
    All over his pants! cause he
    Didn't belong here, he
    Didn't belong here
    He never should've left
    That warm cage in a zoo!
    His face was so ugly
    What else could i do?
    Can you - really blame me, i
    Had to smash it.
    He left me no choice,
    He was just like the others.
    I just had to kill him.
    With my poor, dear, old
    Mother.

    Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpess

    Helplessly fucked in the ass
    By a legion of forty ex-cons
    That's what it feels like
    When you walk all over me.
    Don't belong here, i
    Don't belong here
    Your eyes burn right through me.
    They fill me with fear.
    I could've been at home
    Watching football, and drinking beer.

    Oh, oh, oh oh oh helpess, so helpless.
