Hard To Explain

Was an honest man

Asked me for the phone

Tried to take control

Oh, I don't see it that way

I don't see it that way

Oh, we shared some ideas

All obsessed with fame

Says we're all the same

Oh, I don't see it that way

I don't see it that way

Raised in Carolina

"I'm not like that"

Trying to remind her

When we go back

I missed the last bus, I'll take the next train

I try but you see, it's hard to explain

I say the right things, but act the wrong way

I like it right here, but I cannot stay

I watch the tv; 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"

Says he can't decide

I shake my head to say

Everything's just great

Oh, I just can't remember

I just can't remember

Raised in carolina, she says:

" I'm 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 cannot stay

I watch the tv; forget what I'm told

Well, 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 miss the last bus, we take the next train

I try but you see, it's hard to explain
