The Raconteurs - Only Child

Only child, only son
Treated like a criminal ever since day one

Only child, where do you go?
And are you coming back again? 'Cause no one wants to know

Only child, one of these days
Someone's gonna come around, and try to make you change

Only child, sensitive soul
You see the beauty in everything, without ever being told

I thought about leaving you, once or twice
Leaving it all behind, and never think twice
Somewhere far away on a beach sounds nice
Nothing on my mind, nothing on my mind

Only child, the prodigal son
Has come back home again to get his laundry done

And I thought about leaving here once or twice
Leaving it all behind and never think twice
Somewhere far away on a beach sounds nice
Nothing on my mind, nothing on my mind
