You used to keep it in your treasure chest
But you got rid of it just like the rest
You didn't lose it, no, you didn't lose it
I know you threw it away
And when I saw it going down the drain
I took a stitch and sewed it to my brain
I'm gonna use it, yeah I'm gonna use it
Then everybody will say
Chorus:
It's a strange strange seed, it's a strange strange seed
It's a strange strange seed that I'm sowing
It's still growing
I saw the millions going off the track
They didn't care enough to get it back
They'd just refuse, yeah they'd just refuse it
They'd say it's really passe
I planted it and then I watched it grow
And learned the things they didn't want to know
We're gonna use it, yeah we're gonna use it
And everybody will say
(Chorus)
You learned to hate the clutter so you threw away your toys
But your fear of open spaces made you long for some white noise
You never stop complaining; it's in everything you do
I'll be your father figure and I'll figure it out for you You hardly know enough to be afraid
And fear won't cancel the mistakes you made
We're gonna help you, yeah we're gonna help you
So you'll be better and then
It doesn't matter what you can't recall
You're never gonna have to think at all
We're gonna help you, Mumps are gonna help you
And we'll be happy again!
(Chorus)
