Lyric Helpless
Father collected 50 s records
But he was racist
Mama grew with Frank Sinatra
Raised two hip-hop kids
(chorus)Na Na Na Na
Helpless
Our parents gave us television
And vanished in their cars
Teachers gave us bad religion
Stomach aches and scars
I feel so much better
I was lost forever
I feel so much better now
I ve been standing in the shadows
Years since you were born
Comic books and dirty looks
And protests on the lawn
I ve been stranded on the freeway
And I ve seen the Berlin Wall
I ve been trying to make connection
But I still don t quite belong
(chorus)
I feel so much better
I was lost forever
I feel so much better now
I ve seen all your drama
Hope you like your karma
Back on wonderama now
Na Na Na Na
