Factoid: - I've included "alt." lyrics, though really there is no alt. Helpless. For a laugh, Danny changed the lyrics during at least one live show. The alt. lyrics are written in italics.

Helpless

Countless long nights while I stare at the wall
I ask myself over again
How did I end up in this little hell
How did it ever begin?
Ohhhhhh helpless!

Helpless to turn back the clock that ticks on, with it's cruel shiney face.
It laughs while it watches my every disgrace.
I was born a sap, all the nurses laughed when they say me the first time
They giggled and said
This poor little monster
Would be better off dead.
Ohhhhhh helpless!

Helplessly trapped in a body I'm sure, should have never been mine
I'll bet that my real one is doing just fine
Don't belong here, I don't belong here
I should be quite rich, with a big shiney car
And a house with twelve rooms, I deserve to go far
Ohhhhhhh helpless!

Helplessly falling in love, but does love really last through the night?
To love and to honour
To kick and to bite!
Don't belong here, I don't belong here
It's all a mistake, I was destined for greatness
A leader, a prophet, they're just too blind to notice...

How did this whole silly story begin? It seems that my mind has gone blank
I think that I've messed up a chapter or two
Perhaps it is best if I'm frank

Ohhh helpless!
Helplessly lost like that poor chap who came for an innocent dance
He left with his brain spilled all over his pants.
Cause he didn't belong here, he didn't belong here
He never should have left that warm cage in the zoo
His face was so ugly, what else could I do?
Can you blame me? I just had to smash it
He left me no choice, he was just like the others
I just had to kill him (like more poor dear old mother).

Ohhh helpless!
Helplessly f*cked in the arse by a legion of 40 ex-cons
That's what it feels like when you walk all over me
Don't belong here, I don't belong here
Your eyes burn right through me, they fill me with fear
I should have been home watching football and drinking beer *
Ohhh helpless! So helpless...

*[I should be home watching the OJ Simpson trial and drinking beer]
