Hey I think this is getting to me
First class living in a goldfish bowl
Just when I think
I have driven my life
Where I wanted it to be
It takes me to a place
That I do not want to go
All I ever wanted to do
Was to learn how to break
This world in two
To teach it all the tricks
I wanted it to learn
To teach it how to do
What I want it to do
No one really understands
How simple and plain
And predictable I am
Because all I ever wanted to do
Was to play guitar
In a rock and roll band
Now I'm just losing my hair and I'm
Learning how to smile
Like I just don't care
No I just don't care
(I hear them under their breath)
No, I just don't care
(What they say when they think that I can't hear them)
I see them point and I see them stare
There goes that stupid guy
With the short blond hair
Yeah, I think this is getting to me
First class living in a goldfish bowl
Just when I think
I have driven my life
Where I wanted it to be
It takes me to a place
That I do not want to go
All I ever wanted to do
Was to learn how to break
This world in two
Teach it all the tricks
I wanted it to learn
Teach it how to do
What I want it to do
No one really understands
Just how simple and plain
And predictable I am
Because all I ever wanted real bad
Was to play guitar
In a rock and roll band
Now I'm just losing my hair
And learning how to smile
Whoa!
Say la de da de da de da
Say la de da de da de da
Say la de da de da de da
