Dawes - One of Us lyrics

Your mother finally took all of her money
And put it where her mouth used to be
Turning anybody's ear
About her friends that disappeared
And how she's sailing further out to sea

Your father's spending all of his vacation
Learning foreign names for all his fears
While spirit's he's detected
From the data he's collected
Turned out to be just ringing in his ears

You look like one of them
But, you talk like one of us
Everything they're telling you is wrong
You look like one of them
But, you talk like one of us
Babe I think you know where you belong

Your sister's always mortally offended
At the mispronunciation of her name
Telling all her newer clients
That the "w" is silent
Before she sends them out the way they came

Your brother sends me all his latest poems
About his secret dreams of
Learning how to dance
He always adds a line for you
Asking when you're coming thorugh
So he can tell his supervisor
Six months in advance

You look like one of them
But, you talk like one of us
Everything they're telling you is wrong
You look like one of them
But, you talk like one of us
Babe I think you know where you belong

Your old flame is still counting up his money
In a secret lair he built behind the shelf
Where he chants in repetition
"Lead me not into temptation"
I'm pretty sure he knows the way himself

You look like one of them
But, you talk like one of us
Everything they're telling you is wrong
You look like one of them
But, you talk like one of us
Babe I think you know where you belong
