Stuck In the Middle

I sit and think about the day that you're gonna die Your wrinkled eyes betray the joy with which you smile Care to see my reason? Care to put your life in mine? Looking at life from the perspective of a boy Who's learned to love you but has also learned to grow Could we make it better, stormy weather, is so hard to know Oh, oh, oh, is there anybody home Who will believe me, won't deceive me, won't try to change me? Oh, oh, oh, is there anybody home Who wants to have me, just to love me? Stuck in the middle I look at you, you look at me, we bite each other And with your bitter words you kick me in the gutter But my troops are bigger than yours, you'll never stand my fight Ours is a family that's based upon tradition But with my careless words I tread upon your vision Are five kids better than one? Who doesn't like to become? Oh, oh, oh, is there anybody home Who will believe me, won't deceive me, won't try to change me? Oh, oh, oh, is there anybody home Who wants to have me, just to love me? Stuck in the middle Yeah, yeah, yeah This is just who I am, this ain't a greater plan To break your heart over me I know that what I've started means that when we have parted I can live in honesty Oh, oh, oh, is there anybody home Who will believe me, won't deceive me, won't try to change me? Oh, oh, oh, is there anybody home Who wants to have me, just to love me? Stuck in the middle
