Hey, I've lazed the whole world away,
been lysergic all day,
hypnotized
by the flashing light of the traffic light.
While plastic men keep repeating their days
and making sure everything stays the same,
dreaming's never been easier,
ok, maybe I'm lethargic but it's not a tragedy
I know what they say
but I don't mind at all, I don't mind at all
I forgot to grow
could you slow your roll, would you slow your roll?
Hey, I'm slipping outside of my brain,
I'll wait for the strawberry rain,
black & white rainbows
and fluorescent clouds in a crimson sky.
While iron men keep defending our past
and making sure all they do's gonna last
I just refuse to become one of them,
well it's no tragedy, it's hardly a tragedy
I know what they say
but I don't mind at all, I don't mind at all,
I forgot to grow,
could you slow your roll, would you slow down, slow.
I've been here before
and though it could be charming it's not what I want
so I stay on my own,
please, don't count on me
you just let me off.
Oh, what do they say?
but I don't mind at all, I just smile and let go.
Why, what do I know?
I don't know what's right but you obviously are wrong,
I've been here before
and though it could be cool it's not what I want,
sometimes when I'm on my own
I have this obsessive thought
I was like you, like you.
I was like you, like you
I was like you, like you
I was like you, like you
but you'll never be like me.
