about

I don't know

lyrics

I wanna write a song, but I don't know why
I wanna go to school, but I don't wanna try
I wanna get a job, but work makes me wanna die
I don't know

I guess I'll write a song, doesn't have to be long
It's gotta have a point and it's gotta be strong
I can play it really fast or play it really slow
I don't know

Well first things first, I really hate the circus
In this day and age man, it's really just worthless
Animal abuse, it's hiding 'neath the surface
I don't go

I drink all night and I stay up late
I know it's not good, I've gained a lot of weight
Are you having pizza? I'll have a plate
I know it shows

I'm 22 now, like Paul Simon said
The leaves that were green are now brown and dead
As far as I can tell, I'm hanging by a thread
I'm feeling low

I don't know
What's wrong
I don't know
What's right
Will someone please tell me
I'll be alright

To put things simply, there's a lot I gotta change
It might seem weird and it might seem strange
But for now I have to go
I don't know

I'll leave you with this, a thought I've been thinkin'
This boat I'm on, it seems to be sinkin'
I'll hop on another, and so I quote,
"I hope it floats".
