Sometimes from Fabrication by Ben Ballinger

I was born a year ago in China
And I died on the fourth of July
I brought joy to the boys
When i made the girls cry
And I dont look like a bottle rocket
But sure feel like one sometimes

When I call my sister in Bombay
I know its a conferance call with the CIA
They say they have the right
Because I pray five times a day
And I dont look like a typical terror
But I sure feel like one sometimes

I climbed mountains to escape the flood
And I spent summers surrounded by fire and blood
Just to be crushed in a hole in a maze of mud
And I dont look like the ants you step on
But I sure feel like one sometimes

I was the Roundup cowboy in the city rose garden
I was Jesse James but a bit more modern
I charm the elderly and I help
The cops hearts harden
And I dont look like a local kid criminal
But I sure feel like one sometimes
