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
We shared some ideas
all obsessed with fame
says we're all the same
i don't see it that way
i don't see it that way
Raised in carolina
i'm not like that
tryin' 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 said the right things
but act the wrong way
i like it right here
but i cannot stay
i watched 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
He said he can't decide
i shake my head to say
everythings 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 watched the tv
forget what i'm told
i am too young
and they are too old
i'll make it you see
i'm ever so pleased
pretend to be nice
so i can be mean
i missed the last bus
i'll take the next train
i try, but you see
it's hard to explain
