I'm so Glad

 

 

I had a cousin - his name was Peter

He was ten years older and you loved him so.

When I was born you christened me Milow

But in your good mood you called me Peter.

So I understood I am not real.



You left me every monday to meet your friends

I was a child and alone in dark nights.

You had your fun - I had my fear to fight

I could touch my nightmares with my hands.

So darkness became my best friend.


Chorus:


Thank you, Mama, you’ve

made me happy.

Thank you, Mama,

I’m so glad


When I made a mistake you used to hit me

Till my bare backside was bloody.

I cried for help, I screamed for my daddy

But I had no father to protect me.

So I knew soon I am alone.



Then I began to lie to avoid the pain

You realized my lies and punished me harder.

I started to learn and acted smarter

And in your eyes I saw you’re insane.

So I became a perfect liar.


Chorus

Solo


Later I found a pretty girl to live with

You said to her: „You ain’t good for my son!

He will be mine, he’s my only one.

You better leave my Peter, you ugly miss.“

So it was clear I’ll stay in prison.


Outro:


Thank you, Mama, you’ve

made me happy.

Thank you, Mama,

I’m so glad:

 

’cos - your - are- dead!
