| Sixteen years looking up at the blackboard
|
| I don’t even know how to read
|
| I got pills to make the hamster wheels turn faster
|
| But the monkey’s in the driver’s seat
|
| And now I tear myself apart about everything at once
|
| I miss my good old lack of self esteem
|
| You can take out the wax and tie me to the mast
|
| I gotta hear the sirens scream
|
| Don’t listen to me
|
| I just need a good night’s sleep
|
| And you keep me up all night
|
| Can’t talk right
|
| I’m falling into my clothes
|
| And even though I’m feeling like death
|
| I can’t be upset
|
| 'Cause I finally know
|
| You can document the teenage wildlife
|
| Psychoanalyze the modern man
|
| You can classify 'em all by blood type
|
| But you’re never gonna understand
|
| What if panic were the right reaction
|
| To the anno domini milieu
|
| I’m too sleepy for the main distraction
|
| Downtown lights could never glow like you
|
| I’m going to sleep
|
| And then you keep me up all night
|
| Can’t talk right
|
| I’m falling into my clothes
|
| And even though I’m feeling like death
|
| I can’t be upset
|
| 'Cause I finally know
|
| I don’t want to be an animal (oh no)
|
| But you’re making this hard for me
|
| But I don’t want to be an animal (oh no)
|
| But you don’t wanna go
|
| And you keep me up all night
|
| Can’t talk right
|
| I’m falling into my clothes
|
| And even though I’m feeling like death
|
| I can’t be upset
|
| 'Cause I finally know
|
| I finally know
|
| I finally know
|
| I finally know
|
| I finally know |
