I was born with blue skin
Tied in knots that I'm still in
When the doctor cut me free

Man, he made an enemy out of me

I should have stayed

Crawled back in and hid
But I'm glad that I've done what I did


I was raised by a stranger
Loved every word he said to me
Kept me fat and free from danger

I was the queen of the colony

I left my home

Still a stupid kid
And I'm glad that I've done what I did


I can't complain
Oh, but I do
All the same

I won't win or lose

I met someone when I was older

And I fell so deep in love
When I felt our touch grow colder
I crushed the cage and killed the dove


I couldn't look
I shut my eyelids

And I'm glad that I've done what I did

I can't complain

Oh, but I do
All the same
I won't win or lose


Live each day like it's my first
People tell me that I'm blessed

All I see is where I come from
I hope to trust to know what's best


I made mistakes
I jumped off the grid
But I'm glad I've done what I did

I'm glad I've done what I did

I can't complain

Oh, but i do
All the same
I won't win or lose
