Invitation (McDonough)

I got your invitation
I pinned it up on the wall
And in my imagination
I went on back when I was small
I did not have no fun
I was not anyone.
Now I'm about to leave
And you don't have to follow any more.

I never took no thing
That made me feel like when I was clean
But back when I was young
It wasn't me there at all
I did not have no fun
I was not anyone
Now I'm about to leave
And you don't have to follow any more.

	I got your invitation
	I pinned it wriggling on my mind

The pilgrims on that ship
They had nobody but themselves
But I lost my  address 
Down on the continental shelves
I did not have no fun
I was not anyone
Now I'm about to leave
And you don't have to follow any more.
