lyrics

It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how I keep from going under
I can't help it sometimes, I absorb the way people treat each other
I feel the beat of the rain and the hail and the rumble of the thunder
I'm very sorry the weight of the world makes it hard to be my lover

La da da da
I'm a strange jigsaw case
Baby, I don't fit no place
but I'm gonna fall together soon

It's like a jungle sometimes, it's got me wishin' I was built for competition
They say you must sell yourself. If you do, you get ten-percent commission
I'm gonna remake myself. Get ready for a brand new edition
Wait, no. I can't do it. Branding happens under slavery conditions

La da da da
I'm a strange jigsaw case
Baby, I don't fit no place
but I'm gonna fall together soon

It's not easy being free
It's not easy being me
Yes I know that I'm too soft
I watch them brush it all off
like nothing at all

La da da da
I'm a strange jigsaw case
Baby, I don't fit no place
but I'm gonna fall together soon
