Boy In A Bubble - The Alter Boys

I’m a boy in a bubble

Safe from a world that momma calls evil

She says she knows what’s best for me

And so does my daddy

Trapped in a plastic cocoon

It’s this sterile womb that keeps me alive

And able to smile though sometimes I’m sad

When all I want to do is go outside and play

Candy fields and sugar trees

Immune deficiency disease

Windex rain fluorescent sun

Never touched by anyone

Candy fields and sugar trees

Immune deficiency disease

Windex rain fluorescent sun

Never touched by anyone

Self-contained in cellophane

Quarantined yet on display

The TV screen it speaks to me

It shows me the life I’m missing

Wear my disease on your sleeve

Mother, you’re so naive

Can’t you see this isn’t a life worth living

Don’t you find it hard to believe in God

Look what he’s done to me

Night and day spent in this cage

Perpetually been disengaged

Can’t smell the flowers or your perfume

Can’t taste the lips your kiss consumes

My every thought my every dream

Get me out of this goddamn thing

My life’s the dark side of the moon

If I had a pin I’d pop this balloon

Candy fields and sugar trees

Immune deficiency disease

Windex rain fluorescent sun

Never touched by anyone

Candy fields and sugar trees

Immune deficiency disease

Windex rain fluorescent sun

Never touched by anyone
