Lyrics

The one who reads the stars has told me Why you're not like everyone Your father is a fiery wizard He travels all around the sun No one ever knew just where you came from Orphan girl, you grew up wild Your father left you on the way home Yes, girl, you're a Jupiter's child Wish I knew the way back Back to where you came Gladly I would leave here Take another name I can tell by you, it must be true It's up on Jupiter's face They don't embrace our own disgrace Somebody, help me off this place You never really quite belonged Like a pearl among the swine You tried to live the way we do Hoping you would learn in time But, mankind, with all it's virtue Will soon make you lose your smile On this earth, with all it's madness Heaven help a Jupiter's child Wish I knew the way back Back to where you came Gladly I would leave here Take another name I can tell by you, it must be true It's up on Jupiter's face They don't embrace our own disgrace Somebody, get me off this place © Copyright MCA Music (BMI) All rights for the USA controlled and administered by MCA Corporation of America, INC
