Familiar, why is this so familiar? Familiar, like something I used to know Familiar, staring up at the ceiling Familiar, I swear that I know this feeling Where everybody wants me to be mom (wants me to be mom, wants me to be mom) And everything I do, I do it wrong (I do it, do it wrong) I'll sway them with a joke or with a song (or with a song) And maybe that will help us get along Familiar, why is this so familiar? Familiar, like something I used to do Familiar, that she used to throw a tantrum Insisting that, "Hey, I'm a diamond too" I bet she drove them crazy all the time (crazy all the time) They love her, but they're leaving her behind With more important places they should be (places they should be) Than hanging out with someone just like me Familiar, that's why it's so familiar (that's why it's so familiar) Familiar, like someone I used to be (someone I used to be) Familiar, but this time I've had some practice (this time I've had some practice) At helping a struggling family (a struggling family) Oh, I'll get them all together in one place And once we're all together face to face I'll show them all the error of their ways And stop their spread of terror across space
