Look what they've done to my song, ma

Look what they've done to my song

Well, it's the only thing I could do half right

And its turning out all wrong, ma

Look what they've done to my song

Look what they've done to my brain, ma

Look what they've done to my brain

Yeah, they picked it like a chicken bone

And they think I'm half insane, ma

Look what they've done to my brain

Wish I could find a book to live in

Wish I could find a good book

Cause if I could find a real good book

I'd never have to come out and look at

Look what they've done to my song

Na na na na na na na na

Na na na na na na na

And if people are buying tears

Will be rich someday, ma

Look what they've done to my brain

But maybe I'll be alright, ma

Yeah maybe I'll be okay

Cause if the people are buying tears

Then will be rich someday, ma

Look what they've done to my song

Look what they've done to my soul, ma

Look what they've done to my soul

Yeah, they tied it in a plastic bag

And they shook me upside done, ma

Look what they've done to my song

Look what they've done to my soul
