Lyrics

[Verse 1] Was an honest man Asked me for the phone Tried to take control [Refrain] Oh, I, I don't see it that way I don't see it that way [Verse 2] We shared some ideas All obsessed with fame Says we're all the same [Refrain] Oh, I, I don't see it that way I don't see it that way [Pre-Chorus] Raised in Carolina "I'm not like that" Trying to remind her When we go back [Chorus] I missed the last bus, I'll take the next train I'll try, but you see, it's hard to explain I say the right thing, 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" [Verse 3] He says he can't decide I shake my head to say "Everything's just great" [Refrain] Oh, I, I just can't remember I just can't remember [Pre-Chorus] Raised in Carolina, she says "I'm not like that" Trying to remind her When we go back [Chorus] I say the right thing, 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 missed the last bus, we take the next train I try, but, you see, it's hard to explain
