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'm watching T.V.
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

v1.
As if she can't decide
I shake my head to say
Everythings just great
Oh I just can't remember
I just can't remember

v3.
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'm watching TV
Forget what I'm told
Well, I am too young 
And they are too old
Oh, man cant you see 
I'm nervous, so please
Pretend to be nice
So I can be mean
I missed the last bus
I'll take the next train
I'll try, but you see
It's hard to explain
