Hard to Explain (version 1) Songtext
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
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'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 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
He 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 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, can′t you see, I'm nervous, so please
Pretend to be nice so I can be mean
I missed the last bus, we′ll take the next train
I'll try, but you see, it's hard to explain
Asked me for the phone, tried to take control
Oh, I don′t see it that way
I don't see it that way
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'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 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
He 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 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, can′t you see, I'm nervous, so please
Pretend to be nice so I can be mean
I missed the last bus, we′ll take the next train
I'll try, but you see, it's hard to explain
