Was an honest man
|
Asked me for the phone
|
Tried to take control
|
|
Oh, I don't see it that way
|
I don't see it that way
|
|
Oh, we shared some ideas
|
All obsessed with fame
|
Says we're all the same
|
|
Oh, I don't see it that way
|
I don't see it that way
|
|
Raised in Carolina
|
"I'm not like that"
|
Trying to remind her
|
When we go back
|
|
I missed the last bus, I'll take the next train
|
I try but you see, it's hard to explain
|
I say the right things, but act the wrong way
|
I like it right here, but I cannot stay
|
I watch the TV; forget what I'm told
|
Well, I am too young, and they are too old
|
The joke is on you, this place is a zoo
|
"You're right it's true"
|
|
Says he can't decide
|
I shake my head to say
|
Everything's just great
|
|
Oh, I just can't remember
|
I just can't remember
|
|
Raised in Carolina, she says:
|
" I'm not like that"
|
Trying to remind her
|
When we go back
|
|
I say the right things but act the wrong way
|
I like it right here but I cannot stay
|
I watch the TV; forget what I'm told
|
Well, I am too young, and they are too old
|
Oh, man, can't you see I'm nervous, so please
|
Pretend to be nice, so I can be mean
|
I miss the last bus, we take the next train
|
I try but you see, it's hard to explain
|
