Look what they've done to my song, Ma
Look what they've done to my song
Well, it's the only thing I could do half right
And it's turning out all wrong Ma
Look what they've done to my song...

Well look what they've done to my brain, Ma
Look what they've done to my brain
Yeah, they picked it like a chicken bone
And they think I'm half insane, Ma Look what they've done to my soul

[scat]

Maybe I'll be alright, Ma
Maybe it all be okay
Well if the people are buying tears
We'll be rich someday, Ma
Look what they've done to my song

Look what they've done to my soul, Ma ma ma
Look what they've done to my soul, Ma
Yeah, they tied it in a plastic bag
And turning me upside down, Ma-a
Look what they've done to my song

Look what they've done to my soul (Look what they've done to my soul, Ma)
Look what they've done to my soul (Look what they've done to my soul)
Well, it's the only thing I could do half right
And it's turning out all wrong, Ma
Look what they've done... to my song
[scat]
