The Home That She Denied Me (Octopus's Garden, Ringo Starr)

Man In Black: I have to go.
Mother: Why?
Man In Black: Because I don't belong here.
- Across the Sea

This is a sort of companion piece to This Island Is My Home in which the Man in Black is daydreaming about leaving the Island and trying to figure out how to convince Jacob to go with him.

The Home That She Denied Me 

I’d like to be across the sea

In the home that She denied me as a babe.
I'd watch my twin grow thicker skin

In the home that She denied me as a babe.

We’d see how wide the world could be;

Why doesn’t Jacob want to join me?

I’d like to be across the sea

In the home that She denied me as a babe.

Don’t be alarmed; I’d do no harm

On our journey to reclaim the home I crave.

I would create and innovate,

And our liberty would make my brother brave.

Independence would abound.

No Mother there to boss us ‘round!

I’d like to be across the sea

In the home that She denied me as a babe.

Should I shout that I want out?

Perhaps I should stomp and rant and rave.

(Would it help to rant and rave?)

Need a ploy to sway that Mama’s Boy

Trapped in that suffocating cave.

(What a stifling cave!)

Him and me, at last we would be free,

Basking in the life we never knew.

I’d like to be across the sea

In the home that She denied to us two.

In the home that She denied to us two.

In the home that She denied to us two…
