Stranger In This World Lyrics - Singles - Taboo

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 

On a clear day 

Oh Mother, Oh Mother, Oh Mother...
