Intro
Verse 1
They've been saying
"You‘re sophisticated"
They're complaining
Overeducated
You are saying
All the words I'm dreaming
Say it after me
Say it after me
Verse 2
They will blame us
Crucify and shame us
We can‘t help it
If we are a problem
We are trying
Hard to get your attention
I'm climbing up your wall
Climbing up your wall
Chorus
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 the
same as you
Instrumental
F Dm x3
Verse 3
You were waitin'
For the elevator
You were sayin'
All the words I'm dreaming
No more askin'
Questions or excuses
Information's here
Here and everywhere
Chorus 2
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
Bridge
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
Break
Ahh -- oooh

Outro
Same shit different life
I‘ll get it right some time
Maybe not tonight
Maybe not tonight
Maybe not tonight
Maybe not tonight
Maybe not tonight
