Cranberries - Ode to my Family


Understand the things I say,
Don't turn
away from me
'Cause I spent half my life out there
You wouldn't disagree
D'you see me, d'you
see
Do you like me, do you like me standing there
D'you notice, d'you know
Do you see me, do you
see me
Does anyone care

Unhappiness,
where's when I was young
And we didn't give a
damn
'Cause we were raised
To see life as fun and
take it if we can
My mother, my mother she hold me,
Did she hold me when I was out there
My father, my
father, he liked me
Oh he liked me, does anyone care


Understand what I've become,
It wasn't my
design
And people everywhere think
Something better
than I am,
But I miss you. I miss
'Cause I liked
it, I liked it
When I was out there
D'you know
this, d'you know
You did not find me, you did not
find
Does anyone care

Unhappiness, was when I
was young
And we didn't give a damn
'Cause
we were raised
To see life as fun and take it if we can
My mother, my mother she hold me,
Did she hold me when I
was out there
My father, my father, he liked me
Oh he
liked me, does anyone care , does anyone care?
