The Adults Are Talking |
| They've been sayin' you're sophisticated |
| They're complainin', overeducated |
| You are saying all the words I'm dreaming |
| Say it after me |
| Say it after me |
| They will blame us, crucify and shame us |
| We can't help it if we are a problem |
| We are tryin' hard to get your attention |
| I'm climbin' up your wall |
| Climbin' up your wall |
| Don't go there 'cause you'll never return |
| I know you think of me when you think of her |
| But then it don't make sense when you're trying hard |
| To do the right thing, but without recompense |
| And then you did something wrong and you said it was great |
| And now you don't know how you could ever complain |
| Because you're all confused 'cause you want me to |
| But then you want me to do it the same as you |
| You were waitin' for the elevator |
| You were sayin' all the words I'm dreaming |
| No more askin', questions, or excuses |
| The information's here |
| Here and everywhere |
| Don't go there 'cause you'll never return |
| I know you think of me when you think of her |
| But then it don’t make sense when you're trying hard |
| To do the right thing but without recompense |
| And then you did something wrong and you said it was great |
| And now you don't know how you could ever complain |
| Because you're all confused 'cause you want me to |
| But then you want me to do it the same way as you, and but |
| I don't, I don't want anything |
| I know it's not, it's not your fault |
| I don't want anyone |
| As I do it's not for you |
| Ah, ah-ah-ah-ah |
| Ah-ah, ooh, ooh |
| Stockholders |
| Same shit, a different life |
| I'll get it right sometime |
| Oh, maybe not tonight |
| Oh, maybe not tonight |
| Oh, maybe not tonight |
| Oh, maybe not tonight |
