Cheshire Cat

When you talk about tomorrow
I'm not sure about today
When you tell me that you love me
What am i supposed to say?

Sometimes i don't feel
The same way as you feel

Words like forever
They scare the shit out of me
Maybe i'm afraid of commitment
Maybe you're too distracted to see that

Sometimes i don't feel
The same way as you feel

I think of all the things i'd say to you if i had the chance again
I think of all the things i'd scream
But i think it's for the best
That you and i just don't connect and
Things are never quite what they seem

Will there ever be
Someone to give her heart to me
Or would i be to blind to see it

I wouldn't make a sound
I'd keep it underground

It always seems like i'm running around around
Running around around
Round

Sometimes i don't feel
The same way as you feel

When i'm at work, ya, i always rush right home for lunch
So i can check out what's up on the brady bunch
And when i'm walking through the front door at night
I gotta see who's winning on the price is right, oh

I never dreamed that i'd spend my days
Staring at some tube emitting cathode rays
I need my tv

What's happening in this world, i don't care at all
But it better not pre-empt monday night football
I can't even come up with my own views
I'm taught how to think from the evening news, oh

I never dreamed that i'd spend my days
Staring at some tube emitting cathode rays
I need my tv

La la la...

Oh, how i wish that they would last
Moments of peace that just slip through me so fast
Just when i think that they are gonna stay
Everything inside me just starts fading away

Sometimes it seems like all i hope for
Just gets thrown down on the floor
And then it seems like you don't love me anymore
Sometimes i wish that i could run away
Sometimes i wish i just had something to say

She looks at me and doesn't know the words to say
But it's not you, i just don't feel quite right today
All these things i say and do were never planned
But how the fuck am i supposed to make you understand that

Sometimes it seems like all i hope for
Just gets thrown down on the floor
And then it seems like you don't love me anymore
Sometimes i wish that i could run away
Sometimes i wish i just had something to say

I know what it's like to be alone sitting in your room
Listening to all the doubts that your parents have to say to you

And as your head gets all cluttered inside
Try to stay awake
Everything they say are lies
That's all the shit that you ever have to take

So hold in all your aggresions
Because your grinding your teeth on down to
The bottom of your chin

It's not easy or so damn pleasing
To not laugh at everything they say that
They tell you what to be you're not alone

I know what it's like to be denied at everything you do
It's not the same reason why that
Makes you change the things that you once knew

As your head gets all cluttered inside
Give more than you take
Everything they say are lies
That's all the shit that you ever have to take

So hold in all your aggresions
Because your grinding your teeth on down to
The bottom of your chin

It's not easy or so damn pleasing
To not laugh at everything they say that
They tell you what to be you're not alone

You say you want to take off your shoes and
Walk barefoot down the street
Just to be the things that you can be
Just live for one more week (go!)

You say you want to take off your shoes just to
Walk barefoot down the street
Just to be the things that you can be
Just live for one more week

So hold in all your aggresions
Because your grinding your teeth on down to
The bottom of your chin

It's not easy or so damn pleasing
To not laugh at everything they say that
They tell you what to be you're not alone

At the risk of sounding rude
Just who the fuck do you think you are
To tell me what you expect of me today?

Well, you can take your attitude
You're out of luck, you've gone way too far
If you think there's any chance i'm gonna stay

How long can i string you along?
How little of myself can i give
And still make you believe i care?

At the risk of sounding trite
Why the fuck do you think you're right
About every little thing that you say?

And do you think that it is right
For tom to spend another night
Writing songs about all the people he thinks are gay?

How long can i string you along?
How little of myself can i give
And still make you believe i care?

How long can i string you along
How little of myself can i give
And still make you believe i care?

Do you wanna know what i think of you?
'cause you're not the way i thought you should be
Do take back what you said
It's time to fix, it's time to fix your head

And now all alone, one's less than two
I've never been better off living lonely
To listen to what you say
I couldn't care less of what you say

What did you think of me acting this way
I guess you never really thought at all
Is that what you call your brain?
Is that why i call you hang up on me?

I wanted to know, i didn't want to lose
And now i'm a man who's just living small
Listen to what you say
I couldn't care less of what you say

To me as i walk alone i'd
Much rather be riding prone, then
To be just another one you are lame to

I wanted to know, i didn't want to lose
But now i'm a man who's just living small
Listen to what you say
I couldn't care less of what you say

To me as i tune you out of my mind
Won't bend over backwards or
Take another step ahead to
Hear from you again

Don't talk to me as i walk alone, i'd
Much rather be riding prone, than
Be just another one you are lame to

Don't talk to me as i tune you out of my mind
Won't bend over backwards or
Take another step ahead to
Hear from you again

Don't talk to me as i walk alone, i'd
Much rather be riding prone, than
To be just another one you are lame to

I'm wasting time thinking about a girl
And stealing her away from her world
She and i would run away
I think of all the things that i'd say

We'd talk about important things
And i picture it in my dreams
She'd teach me about modern art
And i'd show her it's okay to fart and

Maybe i'd impress her
By being in a band and
Maybe if i act real tough
She'd let me hold her hand and
Maybe i'll win her heart
By writing this song about her

Sometimes i sit at home and
Wonder if she's sitting at home
Thinking of me and wondering if i'm
Sitting at home, thinking about her
Or am i just wasting my time

Remembering how she laughed at kinko's
When i made fun of that guy
Remebering the look she gave me
When i told her that i used to fry

I really want to ask her out
But my ego could never take it
And even if i got the balls
You know that the cougar would never make it

And in my town you can't drive naked

And maybe i'd impress her
By being in a band and
Maybe if i act real tough
She'd let me hold her hand and
Maybe i'll win her heart
By writing this song about her

Sometimes i sit at home and
Wonder if she's sitting at home
Thinking of me and wondering if i'm
Sitting at home, thinking about her
Or am i just wasting my time

Am i just wasting my time
Am i just wasting my time
Am i just wasting my time
Wasting my time thinking about a girl

There's this one guy
There's no one like him in all the world
'cause you can always see
Those girls down on there knees

In those dark sweaty rooms
Planning out his thoughts
He's waiting for just the right

One by one as they
Walk right through the door, they
Keep on coming back i
Guess they just want more

He has fun fun fun and you
Might call him a whore, but
Just look where he's at 'cause
He is the one that scores

I saw my friend there
Out on the field today
I asked him where he's going, he said
"all the way," now

One by one as they
Walk right through the door, they
Keep on coming back i
Guess they just want more

He has fun fun fun and you
Might call him a whore, but
Just look where he's at 'cause
He is the one that scores

Go!
