The Land of Grimney - The Illustrated Adventures of Cora Pearl, aged 12

Can't speak
in case I say the wrong thing
I don't want to appear weak
With this song I'm about to sing

I hear your thoughts
I know how you feel
Like a television screen
You appear to be made of steel

But I know different
You have a softness
& a feeling well meant
But I love you nevertheless

Don't leave me
Because I'm different
Just 'cause I stand out
Doesn't mean I'm bent

Not trying to be funny
Not trying to be a pest
Just need to say sorry
Before there's another test

Don't get me wrong
I like exams
But I need to sing this song
For all those mums

Your son is with me
& he's not coming back
He decided to flee
when he had a heart attack

Now he is in love with me
I stole his heart
& this mother-in-law
is the one to depart
