Overachiever

Thoughts in my head

Drift around like lead

Won't go away

Go away or I'll be forced to retire

They'll put my number in the rafters

Why does it rhyme?

Does it always have to fit in a box?

I think outside a lot

A hole in my head

And I don't know where my sledge hammer went

Go away, go away

But not too far away

Living like a dad

It's no big deal that he's never here

And he's never coming back

There's a key there's a key

I can't find it but it sounds good to me

Open sesame

I look like a dog

But I'm all cat inside

I dress like a slob

There's no more feeling in my toe that's a lie

I can't tell you why I see all the ghosts

Not in my closet anymore

They're in my room

They're in my room

They're in my bathroom

They're steaming up the mirror

They want us outta here

It's just like you said

There's a ghost in my head

You live and then you're dead

Ask my Mom and believe her

When she says I was an overachiever

A cool demeanor

In its place there's a fever

There's a boy he's alive, he's alive

He's a little eager beaver

Ask my Mom and believe her

When she says I was an overachiever

Why did he leave her

In his place there's a fever

There's a boy he's alive

He's alive, he's alive

He's a leader
