Was an honest man
Asked me for the phone
Tried to take control
Oh I dont see it that way
I dont see it that way

We shared some ideas
All obsessed with fame
Says we're all the same
I dont see it that way
I dont see it that way

Raised in carolina
Im not like that
Tryin to remind her
When we go back

I missed the last bus
Ill take the next train
I try, but you see
Its hard to explain
I said the right things
But act the wrong way
I like it right here
But I can not stay
I watched the tv
Forget what Im told
Well I am too young
And they are too old
The joke is on you
This place is a zoo
Youre right, its true

He said he cant decide
I shake my head to say
Everythings just great
Oh I just cant
I just cant

Raised in carolina (she says)
Im 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 can not stay
I watched the tv
Forget what Im told
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
Ill take the next train
I try, but you see
Its hard to explain
