Familiar, why is this so familiar
Familiar, like something I used to know (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)
And everything I do, I do it wrong (I do, I do it wrong)
I'd 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 (something I used to do)
Familiar, she used to throw a tantrum
Insisting 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 places they should be (places they should be)
Than hanging out with someone just like me
Familiar, why is this 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
