Stranger In This World Lyrics - Boy George

I'm turning my back on this life 

For as long as I can 

Someone make me star 

'Cause I sure as hell can't be a man 

I'm too fragile and clever you know 

And this universe just leaves me cold 

I'm just hanging around here 

I'm longing for someone to hold 

You always knew didn't you mother 

You always knew as mothers always do 

You always knew didn't you mother 

I was a stranger in this world

This dumb education was never quite part 

Of my plan 

So you left me to ruin 

But I'll always know who I am 

I'm too fragile and clever you see 

And your universe just leaves me cold 

I'm just hanging around here 

I'm longing for someone to hold 

You always knew didn't you mother 

You always knew as mothers always do 

You always knew didn't you mother 

I was a stranger in this world 

Whoever told you that these were the days 

Of our lives? 

The sweet boys they crumble 

And the wicked ones rise and survive 

And they're running our lives 

Yes they're running our lives

You always knew didn't you mother 

You always knew as mothers always do 

You always knew didn't you mother 

I was a stranger in this world 

On a clear day, I can see myself for miles 

Oh mother, oh mother, mother
